This year’s Killarney Historic Rally (December 2nd) is set to become a more integral part of the “Christmas in Killarney” festival and in a change with tradition, will be based in the town centre with the Killarney Towers Hotel (O’Donoghue/Ring Collection) as its title sponsor.

For the first time in some six years, the rally will incorporate a night stage, the eighth and final stage of the rally, Ireland’s only dedicated historic event and the opening round of the 2024 Irish Tarmac Historic Rally Championship.
