eBay Garage: The Original Build

Celebrating the DIY spirit of car culture.

For eBay’s debut at Goodwood Festival of Speed, we transformed the digital eBay Motors marketplace into a real-world experience built for petrolheads.

The eBay Garage invited fans to explore parts, learn from creators and celebrate the satisfaction of doing it yourself.

The Challenge

Create a standout debut for eBay at Goodwood Festival of Speed, bringing the digital eBay Motors marketplace to life for a community built around car culture.

The Creative Idea

The eBay Garage - a live, three-dimensional version of the eBay Motors marketplace.

By celebrating the DIY spirit, we created a space where visitors could explore parts, hear from automotive creators and discover the joy of building and maintaining their own projects.

The Experience

At the heart of the activation was a vibrant hub designed to entertain, educate and inspire.

Curated parts displays, live talks from automotive influencers, hands-on demos and expert advice transformed the stand into a meeting place for the car community - proving that the journey of sourcing parts and building projects can be just as rewarding as the result.
