Rally Masters sold out as organisers urge fans to plan travel carefully

Published

on

With over 3,000 people expected to attend Rally Masters at Killarney Racecourse this Saturday, organisers have issued important advice around tickets, traffic, and access.

The event is completely sold out, and no further tickets will be made available.
Clerk of the Course Tim Clifford stressed that admission is strictly by pre-purchased ticket only. “No tickets will be on sale at the gate. Anyone arriving without a ticket will be turned away,” he said.
There will be no spectator car access via Ross Road, and parking is prohibited both on the road itself and at the event venue.
Tow-away zones will be in place, and any vehicles left illegally will be removed. Mr Clifford appealed to fans to respect residents along Ross Road as well as tourists wishing to visit Ross Castle.
To make access easier, a free courtesy bus will run between outside the Avenue Hotel and the Rally Masters site.
The service will operate continuously from 9.30am to 5.00pm.
Spectators are advised to use Killarney town’s car parks, where there is ample capacity, and to take the shuttle bus to the racecourse. With large crowds expected, the clear message from organisers is to arrive early and only use designated facilities.
Mr Clifford added: “We are thrilled with the overwhelming support for Rally Masters and thank everyone sincerely. With your cooperation, we can ensure a safe, enjoyable, and memorable event for all while supporting our chosen charities.”
Proceeds from Rally Masters will go directly to LauraLynn Children’s Hospice and the Jack and Jill Foundation, two charities providing vital support for children and families across Ireland

Pig’s Lane on College Street has become one of the first bars in Ireland to be recognised by the international Pinnacle Guide, earning a coveted ‘1 PIN’ status , the guide’s equivalent of a Michelin star for cocktail bars.

Only 61 venues worldwide were added to the Pinnacle Guide’s latest cohort on Wednesday this week.
The guide rates bars using a three-level PIN system: ‘1 PIN’ for excellent, ‘2 PINs’ for outstanding, and ‘3 PINs’ for exceptional.
This accolade follows Pig’s Lane’s recent wins at the Bar of the Year Awards 2025, where it was named Best Designed Bar of the Year, took bronze in Cocktail Bar of the Year, and last year was named Innovative Bar of the Year.
Opened in October 2023, Pig’s Lane is Killarney’s first subterranean cocktail bar, known for its creative drinks, locally sourced snacks, and live music.
It is part of the O’Donoghue Ring Collection and led by Managing Director Gemma Ring alongside world champion mixologist Ariel Sanecki.
Gemma said: “We are so proud to be part of Ireland’s debut in the Pinnacle Guide. Achieving a PIN involves a detailed assessment of every aspect of a bar’s operation, from the drinks programme and service to venue design, management, sustainability, and more. To be recognised alongside such incredible bars around the world, many of whom we admire deeply, is incredibly inspiring. This achievement is a celebration of our entire team and we couldn’t be prouder.”
