Musical Feast: Guided tour of the BMW plant in Greer, SC

Wednesday, June 19, 2019 @ 10:30 am - 1:00 pm

$50.00
  • « Musical Feast: Blue Ridge Bounty
  • Asheville Symphony Guild Potluck »

Come join a special tour of the BMW factory in Spartanburg, South Carolina! We have a very unique opportunity to see the totally renovated BMW plant, combined with a visit to the Zentrum Museum, highlighting the combination of innovation and performance.

THIS NEWLY-ANNOUNCED FEAST will be held on Wednesday, June 19, 2019, starting at 10:30 AM and ending before 1:00 PM. Participants will walk approximately one mile during the tour and must be 12 years of age or older.

ONLY 36 PARTICIPANTS CAN BE ACCOMMODATED ON THIS TOUR, SO DON’T DELAY! DEADLINE FOR SIGN-UPS IS JUNE 1.

This BMW factory is the company’s global center of competence for BMW X3, X4, X5, X6, and X7 Sports Activity Vehicles and Coupes sold in more than 140 global markets. This BMW factory recently underwent a $1 billion expansion, featuring the recent addition of a state-of-the-art body shop, expansion of the X5/X6 assembly hall, and an extension of logistics. There will be time to explore the beautiful Zentrum Museum as well. Even though we’ll be seeing dozens of huge robots welding the bodies together, BMW employs 11,000 people to produce over 1,400 cars each day at this plant. BMW exports more cars to the rest of the world than any car manufacturer in the US.

BMW safety restrictions: Tour participants must be 12 years old or older. Guests 18 or older must present a picture ID upon arrival for scheduled tour. Completely enclosed shoes are required for the tour. No flip-flops, high heels, open toe, open side or open heel shoes will be permitted, no exceptions. Cameras and camera phones are not permitted. Cell phones must be turned off during the tour. Please leave personal belongings locked in your vehicle.

Hosted by Sylvia and Fred Cassel and Otis and Gina Philbrick, the cost for this Feast is $50.00 per person.
