KINSALE will once again go retro for The Blue Haven Kinsale Vintage Rally, which takes place from May 8th to 11th.

With over 100 amazing vintage cars on display in Kinsale over the weekend, it is always a popular weekend on the Kinsale events calendar.

The launch takes place in the Blue Haven on Wednesday April 15th, with the newly crowned Miss Cork, along with refreshments and a sample of the vintage cars that are set to come to the rally.

Now in its 26th year, it is regarded as a special event on the Irish classic car calendar.

FKVCMC was originally established in 1988 by a group of classic car enthusiasts and since then the club has grown to a current membership of over 100 members.

All members of the club share a common passion for driving and preserving the classic cars of yesteryear. For more information on this year’s Kinsale Vintage Rally contact [email protected] or call 021-4772209.
