Together with a clubman friendly route, low road mileage, and a centralised service are, it’s hoped that 2027 will bring out plenty of drivers for a hell of run.

All maps and time slots can be found in the Official Rally Programme available nearer to the event.

The rally is the first major motorsport event annually in Ireland. Over the years the event has attracted entrants from England, Scotland, Wales, Isle of Man, the former Czechoslovakia, France, America, Gambia, Belgium, Arabia, Norway and Finland and the rally serves as the season opener for the championship.

First taking place eleven years after the founding of Galway Motor Club in 1960, the annual Galway rally has been a staple of Irish motorsports since 1971.
