Subaru of America will act as the official title sponsor of the ‘SubieEvents’ owner and enthusiast series once again in 2025, with six individual events, set to include meet-and-greets and passenger laps with Subaru Motorsport USA’s factory drivers, already scheduled across the United States in 2025.
The first SubieEvent – the ‘Wicked Big Meet’ – will take place at the Stafford Motor Speedway in Connecticut on June 8th, and will be followed by four further events across California, Pennsylvania, Illinois and Texas throughout Summer and Fall, before the curtain is brought down at ‘Subiefest Florida’ on December 14 at Orlando Speed World.

Vintage, Rally And Gymkhana Subarus Will Be On Display
Each SubieEvent is set to include family-focused activations, tech seminars, and even competitions for Subaru owners and fans across the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic and Midwest. Moreover, Subaru of America will also provide test drive opportunities of its current ICE and EV fleet – likely to include the Crosstrek, Forester and Outback SUVs, the all-electric Solterra, the ever-reliable Impreza, and the two-seater BRZ – and each event with a dedicated autocross course on which attendees can test their own vehicles. Owners can also register their cars for participation in an All-Subaru Car Show at each event.
Tantalizingly, Subaru of America, which just had its best sales month ever in March, has also confirmed a “curated showcase” of Subaru Motorsports’ rally and gymkhana cars. Vintage and special edition models will also be on display. A notable example from last year’s ‘Boxerfest’ in Pennsylvania was the modified, 1983 862-horsepower Subaru GL Wagon ‘Family Huckster’ built by Hoonigan, driven by Travis Pastrana, while the late Ken Block’s #43 WRX STI was a fan favorite in 2023.
Does Your Dog Want To Meet Bucky Lasek?
Pro skater Bucky Lasek, also an official partner of the SubieEvents series, and Subaru Motorsports USA drivers Rhiannon Gelsomino and Scott Speed (also a former Toro Rosso Formula 1 driver) will be in attendance at select events – not yet confirmed – for meet-and-greets and ride-along opportunities.
Moreover, as part of the affiliated ‘Subaru Loves Pets’ program, which aims to improve the lives of millions of shelter animals, each SubieEvent in 2025 will provide attendees with pet ‘rest stops’ in covered and shaded grassy areas. Pet adoption opportunities will also be provided courtesy of adoption centers local to each area.
