Indonesia International Auto Show

The Gaikindo Indonesia International Auto Show is an annual auto show held in Indonesia. Organized by Seven Events, and hosted by the Association of Indonesian Automotive Industries (GAIKINDO) hence its name, the show was spun off from the Indonesia International Motor Show (IIMS), another Indonesian automotive exhibition that was formerly authorized by the latter, since 2015. It is held at the Indonesia Convention Exhibition (ICE) in Tangerang Regency, Banten.

History
Prior to its establishment, the Association of Indonesian Automotive Industries (GAIKINDO) formerly established and hosted the Indonesia International Motor Show (IIMS) between 1986 and 2014, which since 2000, it was organized by Dyandra Promosindo, a subsidiary of Kompas Gramedia. The 1986 event, originally known as the Gaikindo Car Exhibition, was first held at the Jakarta Convention Center (JCC) with 13 exhibitors participated the event. The show was renamed to the Jakarta Auto Expo in 1989, then later the Gaikindo Auto Expo in 2000, before adopting to its current name, Indonesia International Motor Show in 2006 after it was recognized as an international-scale exhibition by the Organisation Internationale des Constructeurs d'Automobiles (OICA). Since 2009, IIMS relocated to its current venue, Jakarta International Expo (JIExpo), located at Kemayoran in Pademangan, North Jakarta. Gaikindo first announced the Gaikindo Indonesia International Auto Show (GIIAS) in February 2015 after ending their partnership with Dyandra. According to Gaikindo's second co-chairman, Johnny Darmawan, the association realized the name "Indonesia International Motor Show" was already patterned and wholly owned by Dyandra, resulting the association have completely lost the rights to use the former name. After splitting off, Gaikindo trademarked the name "Gaikindo Indonesia International Auto Show" and appoints Seven Events as their new event organizer, while Dyandra retained their commitment to organize the Indonesia International Motor Show as its own event without Gaikindo's authorization, starting from 2015 onwards. In late July 2015, Gaikindo announced the show would also include a spin-off roadshow series held in major Indonesian cities, with South Sulawesi's Makassar and East Java's Surabaya being the first cities to held these events. The Makassar event would be held in November at the Celebes Convention Center (CCC), located at Tanjung Bunga in the Tamalate district, while the Surabaya event would be held in December at the Grand City Convention & Exhibition, located at Ketabang in the Genteng district. The Gaikindo Indonesia International Auto Show (GIIAS) was officially established with the public opening of the 23rd edition on 20 August 2015, featuring a total gross area of , and a participation of 40 different brands (22 in the passenger vehicle category, 10 in the commercial vehicle category, and 6 in the motorcycle category, including 2 parallel importers). Then-12th Vice President of Indonesia, Jusuf Kalla visited the event and inaugurated its opening ceremony, while being accompanied by other guests such as Ministry of Industry's Saleh Husin, Ministry of Trade's Thomas Lembong, and Banten's governor, Rano Karno. The event was also established during the country's falling domestic vehicle demand at the time. Despite its unsuccessful attempt to response falling vehicle sales, the 23rd GIIAS remain considered as a success, having visited by 451,654 visitors, beating Gaikindo's initial projected target of 380,000. Between 2016 and 2017, the venue for the Makassar event was briefly moved to the Four Points by Sheraton Makassar hotel, located at Pa'baeng-Baeng, also in the Tamalate district. The event was returned back to its initial Celebes Convention Center (CCC) venue in 2018. In 2017, following the success of the Makassar and Surabaya roadshow events in the previous two renditions, Gaikindo expanded its roadshow series to two more capital cities; Medan, North Sumatra, and Samarinda, East Kalimantan. In 2022, the roadshow series was expanded to Semarang, Central Java, which initially took place at the Marina Convention Center, located at Tawangsari in the western part of the city. From 2024 onward, the Semarang event was moved to a newer venue, Muladi Dome-Diponegoro University Convention Center in the Tembalang district. In 2023, Gaikindo expanded its roadshow series to include Bandung, West Java, which took place at the Sudirman Grand Ballroom, located at Dungus Cariang in the Andir district. == Editions ==
