Orange, CA - January 22, 2007 - HIN Events, producer of the premier automotive lifestyle festival series of the U.S., has announced its ten-month, 21-city tour schedule for 2008.
This year, in addition to returning to familiar territories such as Orlando, Los Angeles, Seattle, Miami, and Phoenix, the events are also traveling to new places like Austin, TX, Landover, MD, and Columbus, OH. Charlotte, NC, which has previously hosted only HIN, will get to experience the fast paced extreme motorsports action of Nightshift.
The company, who hosted 21 HIN and Nightshift events in 2007 and received more than 330,000 in total visitors, anticipates a significant lift in attendance numbers in 2008.
For the 2008 season, the events series promises dramatic enhancements to its car and model content, talent lineup, and production value, while staying true to the best in class image consistently associated with the HIN brand.
"This year we are going to take what makes HIN great - cars, gadgets, beautiful women, motorsports, unique product displays, and the hottest names in pop culture - and elevate them to a whole new level," said Daniel Campbell, General Manager of HIN Events. "Longtime fans and newcomers alike will be truly amazed!"
