Killarney Valley Classic and Vintage Club will get their prestigious All-Ireland Vintage Rally weekend underway with a car run and an open day at its Vintage Shed on Saturday.
“For anyone who enjoys car runs there will be a run on Saturday afternoon, meeting at the club’s Vintage shed on upper Lewis Road (V93 YOYC) from 1:30pm and leaving at 3:30pm,” said club PRO Richard O’Donoghue.
On Sunday, the festivities will move to the renowned grounds of Muckross Traditional Farms. This family-friendly event promises a delightful journey back in time, celebrating the vintage ways of Ireland from the 1950s, 60s, and 70s.
The event will showcase a variety of traditional activities, including haymaking, stooking turf, butter making, bread making, and ploughing with vintage tractors and horses. Visitors will also enjoy crossroads dancing, exhibitions, and a static display of vintage engines and thrashing machines.
One of the highlights of the event will be a rare display of Ferguson tractors from the era, offering a glimpse into the history of agricultural machinery.
Due to the high demand, pre-registration for the car and tractor display is now closed. Those who were unable to register in advance will need to enter the event via the main entrance of Muckross House and follow the stewards’ directions.
All proceeds from the event will be donated to Kerry Mental Health, a valuable cause that provides essential support to individuals and families in the community.
Just as newspapers and magazines are paid for, digital editorial content will also have to be paid for.
