Gumball 3000 in Bandera, TX: Cowboy Capital of the World

The world reknown Gumball 3000 passed through the ‘Cowboy Capital of the World’ on Monday, June 8, 2026.

Bandera, Texas welcomed the parade of cars, celebrities, horses and steers as they helped celebrate their 27th Annual Rally with this year’s spectacular route from Miami to Mexico City on the ‘Road to the World Cup’.

International superstars and supercars arrived together to participate in this 3,000 mile road trip of a lifetime across just 6 days.

Starting from Miami at Hard Rock’s iconic Guitar Hotel, the route crosses the finish line in Mexico City, where Gumballers will receive a ticket to the Opening Match of FIFA World Cup 26™ taking place at Estadio Azteca on June 11, 2026.

They’re heading to Mexico, and to the World Cup, for the very first time, and as always they are bringing our festival of cars, music and VIP parties to each city on route.

Over 100 spectacular cars  went from Florida to New Orleans to Houston and Austin along for the beginning leg of the ride, driven by an international ‘who’s who’ of celebrities, royalty, influencers, sports stars, music legends, gamers, YouTubers and business leaders from over 40 countries, driving absolutely anything from custom classics to the latest and greatest hypercars.
