The official launch of the 2026 Assess Ireland Rally of the Lakes will take place at Gleneagle Hotel on Saturday, April 11.
The organising team, led by Clerk of the Course Tim Clifford, will reveal key details of the upcoming event, including an up-to-date entry list and several new innovations for this year’s rally.
Representatives from three major championships will be in attendance: the NAPA Irish Tarmac Rally Championship, the GK Print Southern 4 Rally Championship, and the Kingdom of Kerry Rally Championship.
Local councillors and politicians will also be present to offer their formal backing to the event, which remains a significant economic driver for the region.
The launch begins at 5:00pm with a display of rally cars outside the hotel. Several local rally drivers will be on hand to meet fans, and an open invitation has been extended to all members of the public and rally enthusiasts to attend.
Just as newspapers and magazines are paid for, digital editorial content will also have to be paid for.
