Meanwhile, in the spirit of SEMA Week which the SEMA Show and SEMA Fest take place, SEMA and Galpin Auto Sports (GAS) have teamed up with festival headliner Imagine Dragons to create a vintage-inspired 2023 Ford Bronco. The custom retro-styled four-door Bronco Badlands will make its debut at the SEMA Show on Tuesday, October 31 leading into Imagine Dragons’ headlining SEMA Fest performance on Saturday, November 4. The Las Vegas-based music group provided the creative inspiration and vision for the build, which is reminiscent of a first-generation Bronco with a number of overlanding amenities, and was brought to life by the talented team at GAS.

The Bronco will be auctioned off at a future date with all proceeds benefiting Tyler Robinson Foundation (TRF), the nonprofit organization of the GRAMMY® Award-winning band Imagine Dragons dedicated to supporting children battling pediatric cancer. Founded in 2013, Imagine Dragons launched TRF after meeting Tyler Robinson, an inspiring teen and fan of the band who battled a rare form of childhood cancer. TRF continues Tyler’s legacy and honors his courageous example by reaching out to uplift other children battling cancer and the families who support them. TRF’s mission is to support these families financially and emotionally by offsetting out-of-pocket life expenses as they cope with their child’s diagnosis.
