Tour de Cebu is organized by the Performance and Classic Enthusiasts (PACE) Club of Cebu, a premier car club for exotic car owners and collectors. Having staged classic car runs across the Visayas as a hobby, they established Tour de Cebu in 2013 to mark their 10th anniversary and opened it to not just classic car collectors but to enthusiasts and spectators as well. It is inspired by the Mille Miglia, an open-road endurance race held in Italy which literally translates to one thousand miles.
Tour de Cebu is presented by Petron and co-presented by BE Grand Resort. Official Partners include Chopard, Jaguar-Land Rover, Montebello Villa Hotel, Nissan, LiquiMoly, Pirelli, Johnny Air Plus, and FastCat.
