Supercars set to dazzle rally fans at Chirk Castle




A host of the world’s premier supercars will dazzle rally-goers next month when RallyFest rolls into Chirk Castle on Saturday,November 14.

Organised by the Supercar Driver Network, the list of dream machines on show features Aston Martins, Ferraris, Lamborghinis, a TVR Sagaris, Porsches, Jaguar F-Types, BMWs – including the i8 hybrid, Audis, Nissan GTRs, a Maserati, a Lotus and a BAC Mono.

The pack of exotic vehicles joins an already burgeoning RallyFest line up, including daring stunt-driving performances from 22-time world record holder Terry Grant, historic rally cars including former Colin McRae rally machinery and live action through the castle grounds from the world’s best WRC drivers and Supermoto riders.

A special competitive section has been laid out using the medieval castle’s private roads around which more than 150 of the world's top rally drivers will race against the clock to set the fastest time. The RallyFest, though, has been created to offer fans and spectators much more than just the thrills of the dramatic rally stage.

Aimed firmly at those preferring to spend a full day in a single location and, perhaps, those new to this exciting sport, the RallyFest also provides enhanced facilities with live coverage on a big screen, commentary, food outlets plus fun-fair rides for juniors.  It all adds up to one great day of epic entertainment staged at a stunning, easily accessible venue.

There will be more exciting attractions at Chirk to be announced in the final build-up to Wales Rally GB, the UK’s concluding round of the 2015 FIA World Rally Championship.

Fans wanting to experience the RallyFest – and the host of great entertainment on offer – can take advantage of discounted Special Stage tickets by purchasing in advance.

Tickets for the family-friendly RallyFest at Chirk Castle are available now for £25 with an even greater discount for families. Full ticket information can be found on the WalesRallyGB.com website.

The four-day World Rally Pass is the all-inclusive ticket for fans. It provides access to all the individual Special Stages as well as Thursday’s pre-event Shakedown. It is priced at £99 for adults (or just £1 for accompanied children aged 9-15) and comes with a desirable hard card and lanyard plus an event programme valued at £9.

Forest Passes offer a similar level of flexibility as the World Rally Pass but for individual days of the event. Again they include an official programme and can be purchased in advance from just £25 – a considerable saving on Single Stage tickets which will cost £30 on the gate.
