A North Clare town is set to receive an economic boost this weekend, as more than 200 supercars descend on the county for the annual Cannonball road trip.
Europe’s largest organised road trip will stop off at The Falls Hotel in Ennistymon on Saturday afternoon, before heading to Bunratty later that evening.
The event is expected to attract thousands of spectators, with approximately €2.5 million estimated to be generated for local towns around Ireland.
The convoy will feature an incredible line-up of supercars, music and entertainment, with this year’s spectators also getting the chance to see a rare Bugatti Chiron hypercar.
Founder Alan Bannon says the event has raised more than €2.3 million for Irish children’s charities since it began in 2009, with Ronald McDonald House the recipient this year.
