Indonesia International Auto Show

The Gaikindo Indonesia International Auto Show (GIIAS) is an annual auto show held at the Indonesia Convention Exhibition (ICE) in Tangerang Regency, Banten, 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) since 2015. Aside to Tangerang, the show is also held as a spin-off series in major Indonesian capital cities, known as GIIAS The Series, including Bandung, Makassar, Medan, Semarang and Surabaya.

As of 2024, the Gaikindo Indonesia International Auto Show is the second largest auto show in the world after the Beijing Motor Show.

History
Prior to its establishment, the Association of Indonesian Automotive Industries (GAIKINDO) formerly established and hosted the Indonesia International Motor Show (IIMS) between 1986 to 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 in 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.

The Gaikindo Indonesia International Auto Show (GIIAS) was first announced by Gaikindo in February 2015, after the association dissolved their partnership with Dyandra, resulting IIMS continued to run without Gaikindo's authorization from 2015 onwards. Differentiating from IIMS, GIIAS is held at a different venue, Indonesia Convention Exhibition (ICE), located at BSD City in Pagedangan, Tangerang Regency, Banten, with a total space of 220.000 m2, and is organized by Seven Events. In 3 March 2015, GIIAS received a full support and was sanctioned by the OICA.

In late July 2015, Gaikindo announced that the 2015 event in Tangerang would be later followed by two continuing spin-off events held in Makassar, South Sulawesi on November 2015, and Surabaya, East Java in December 2015, establishing GIIAS as a series of automotive show events in major Indonesian cities. The Makassar event is held at the Celebes Convention Center (CCC), located at Tanjung Bunga in the Tamalate district, while the Surabaya event is held at the Grand City Convention & Exhibition, located at Ketabang in the Genteng district.

Following an inaugurated opening ceremony held with a visit from the then 12th Vice President of Indonesia, Jusuf Kalla, the 23rd Gaikindo Indonesia International Auto Show was opened to the public in 20 August 2015, marking the establishment of GIIAS.

At its establishment, the main Tangerang event was started by covering a total gross area of 91.577 m2, with a participation of 40 different brands (22 exhibited passenger car brands, 10 exhibited commercial vehicle brands, 6 motorcycle brands and 2 parallel importers). The number of area space and participants were later grew through the following years of the event, with the 2024 show broke a record of over 120.000 m2 of space, with a participation of 55 different brands.

2015
The first edition of the exhibition, the 23rd Gaikindo Indonesia International Auto Show was held from 20 to 30 August 2015, marking its split-off from the Indonesia International Motor Show (IIMS). Notably, its run was held alongside the 23rd IIMS at the same time. It was followed by the Makassar event held from 25 to 29 November, and later the Surabaya event held from 9 to 13 December.

Lexus and Porsche made their first Indonesian auto show appearances at this exhibition as branded exhibits. Aston Martin and McLaren were represented by exhibits organized by parallel importers, instead of branded exhibits hosted by their company themselves. Proton and Subaru were originally planned to participate the show, but were quietly pulled out from the event shortly thereafter. Maxus, under the partnership with Malaysian distributor The Weststar Group as Weststar Maxus, also joined this exhibition to mark their entry to the Indonesian commercial vehicle market.

Initially targeted to reach 380,000 attendees, the 2015 show was visited by 451,654 visitors.
