Default Gumball 2005

All the "stars and cars" will be arriving at the Gumball Palace in Bloomsbury Square, WC1 (Central London) from 7:30PM onwards, so get there early if you want to grab photos and autographs with any of the celebs! Cars
on display will include Pagani Zondas, F40's, Enzo's, a Gumpert Appollo, the amazing "EOS" concept car and Farboud GT alongside last years spirit of the Gumball winners Citroen 2cv and my unique General Lee!

The Premiere will be followed by a major Gumball party with Jamiroquai performing live, along with a star-studded night of performances including Sammy Jo (Scissor Sisters Tour DJ), Tyler James, soul diva Kym Mazelle, hip
hop stars Aphletik and the Cuban Brothers! We'll be throwing a few tickets out to lucky fans outside the venue on the night.....so you could get lucky to attend the party that has become the 'hottest' ticket in London!
(Some of you may also have seen this week that The Sunday Times listed the Gumball as one of the hottest parties to attend in the world this summer!)

Then, the following day, on Saturday 14th May, all 120 amazing cars taking part will be parked on display throughout the day (between 11AM - 6PM) on Waterloo Place, off Pall Mall (nearest Tubes Trafalgar Square and
Piccadilly Circus), for fans to come down and see!

The start flag will be dropped at 6PM by British F1 driver Jenson Button before the cars set off on an amazing 3000 mile route through Belgium, Prague, Vienna, Budapest, Dubrovnik, Sicily, and Rome, crossing the
finishing line on the evening of Friday 20th in Monte Carlo's Casino Square!

I think the start is 7pm, they are going for a tour around central London from 6 I think to show off the cars - the route is on the extreme channel web site.

I'll prob be going to the premier tomorrow and the party after, so I'll try and take some good pics.
