  2. Select your preferred day
  3. Fill in your details
  4. Use Promo Code: ELECTRIC ANY CODE LISTED HERE

I'm not sure how many free tickets are available, but I just got mine :D

Excited for the show!

    Nice find OP!. Just a bit weird though to go see an exhibition of electric vehicles that are Static. 😇

    • +7

      You can test drive the vehicles whilst you're there and there's a live stage and other stuff going on like an electric go kart course :) Was fun for the family last year

      • Nice find OP, booked to go with family. Sounds like kids should enjoy it.

    • If you ask nicely, they might rev the battery for you! :)

      • +1

        I'm actually psyched for the future where I don't have to listen to (profanity) revving their cars ever again.

    If you aren't paying for the product, you are the product”.

      Not quite here. They're selling you products. It's basically getting a ticket to go to a multi-dealership.

    • +5

      make sense somewhere else but not here. basically who pays for these kind of shows are being robbed (cat/dog lovers, baby expo, etc), the host charges both business and customers which makes no sense at all…

      • -3

        True, I just like the saying.

      • -2

        the host charges both business and customers which makes no sense at all…

        Makes perfect sense. It's called creating a business.

        • You still a fan of Trump, given he's directly attacking first amendment rights?

      • -1

        So it's like YouTube Premium then?

        Advertisers pay YT to put up ads and we the customer have to pay YT to take them down again.

        • +1

          well, there's costs related to create/distribute video content, someone has to pay for it.

          As the audience, we either pay directly to the creators/distributors, or pay the business guys by seeing their ads.

          the key difference here is that we have either, ads or pay, NOT both.

      That's why I pay for ozbargain gold

    This feels like a timeshare free lunch.

  • It seems their sales are not so much electrifying!

    They're also doing a competition where u can win a brand new XPENG G6 (Electric car) if u buy a ticket through Ticketmaster lol https://www.futuredriveauto.au/melb/ev25/raffle-campaign

      Hmmm have you tried 'GRETATHUNBERG' ?! that should do it…

    • Keep trying. Showed not available at the first and after 2 mins it worked.

    • Still works for Friday for me, not for Saturday or Sunday. For now

  • +6

    LOL.

    code expired.

    who TF pays $45 to be advertised…. plus parking/travelling

    • People that have $45 to spare. Much cheaper than paying $100 for a 10 min lap dance.

    hope they give free powerbanks as welcome gift

    Will it be sponsored by the gasoline producers of America??

    • Not working for me. "This promo code is no longer available"

      • Yep, not working now.

        • Still working on the Friday and Sunday!

          • @EVLover98: Tried for the Sunday just now (4 min after you posted this) and getting the error code mentioned above.

            • @robtheman: I literally just did it again and it worked. Strange. Maybe try again?

              • @EVLover98: I think people said it does not work, clicked on the wrong place/ link. They need to click on your link, then pick the day (1, 2, or 3) they want in the middle of the screen, not the pink button "GET TICKETS" which will get them to tickmetmaster.

                  @zeroxx: Just tried it again and it's working now! Not sure what changed but I did the exact same thing as before. Thanks for making me persevere.

    • You're not forced to buy one just by attending

    • +2

      Nope, my EV is half the price of my diesel

    • Wrong, same or less than a similar performance and price vehicle.
      I drive a 4sec 0-100 Tesla M3 LR and insurance is less than $1000 in QLD with RACQ!

    • The cost to insure those EVs are astronomical.

      Do you have a comparative quote you could share as evidence of this? Because mine is cheaper than my previous ICE car. Car is insured for 50% more but premium is 30% cheaper

    The recent Melbourne Motor Show was essentially an EV car show. Now this?

    Still works, ive managed to get 2 tickets for my missus and I. It says code invalid after the first one but if you use another device/phone to sign up for the ticket it will still work

    • Thank you sir, this worked.

  • Available for Sunday

  • 5:15pm Just worked for me for Friday.

    Got 6 tickets for my buddies lol. Cross fingers it will not get cancelled.

  • Got tix for the Sunday. Thanks OP. Went to the Melb Motor Show and that was underwhelming, hoping this if better.

    • Most of the shows are quite underwhelming compared to overseas ones :(

  • Only Friday and Sunday working for me

  • +1

    Only working for Friday

  • Only Friday working for me :(

  • Sunday worked for me.

  • Seems like all gone.

    • Yup tried all three days and they're gone :/

  • Meh, sounds like a snooze fest

  • +1

    Exhibitors so far are pretty abysmal… won’t be going if that doesn’t improve. Hopefully additional tickets gets exhibitors there.

  • Friday worked for me and a friend

  • Not working for Friday anymore, if anything is willing to pass on their ticket I’d really appreciate it. Just the one ticket needed ;)

    • DM me.

  • Have 3 tickets for friday.
    Just not sure how can I possibly send those to others via ozb?
    Have sent you a DM already.

    • Have responded to your message. Thanks so much mate!

      • Sent to your inbox.

  • Can you send it to someone else even though the name on ticket is a different person ?

    • It should be fine as it's a bar code that they will perhaps scan at the time of entry.

  • Have got 2-3 more tickets for Friday, if anyone else wants them, please DM me your email address.

    • says you are not accepting new convos so couldn't DM you. If you still got 3 tix available I will be very grateful to have them so I can take my parents to the show. Thanks.

  • If it is anything like the event in ICC Sydney, you would be disappointed. Large floor space were empty. Showing car models that are not coming to AU (Zeekr). However, a few more Chinese companies have come since then and maybe, there would be more vendors.

    FYI, I sat in KIA EV6 for the first time and was genuinely shocked how bad the materials were compared to the chinese counterparts and what price they are asking.
