Gumball 3000, the world-renowned international car rally, selected Austin as a featured stop on its 2026 Miami-to-Mexico City route, making the rally’s first return to Texas in more than a decade. The event called for transporting one of Austin’s most iconic corridors into a high-energy public celebration. The Gumball team needed a trusted local production partner capable of navigating Austin’s complex permitting process, coordinating with multiple city departments, and delivering a safe, seamless experience for both participants and the public.

Forefront Networks served as the boots-on-the-ground production partner, leveraging deep expertise in large-scale public events and longstanding relationships with the City of Austin. By bringing together city agencies, event organizers and community partners, Forefront successfully transformed Congress Avenue into a world-class rally destination for 100+ super cars and thousands of spectators.
