Millstreet Vintage Club is inviting car, van and jeep owners to take part in its Cars & Light Commercials Run on Sunday 30 August 2026, with all proceeds going to The Alzheimer Society of Ireland.

Sign-on takes place from 10.30am at Green Glens, Millstreet (P51 EN28), with complimentary refreshments served before departure at 12.30pm. Organisers describe it as a scenic, relaxed run.

Unlike many vintage rallies, the event is open to all makes and models. Vans and jeeps do not need to be vintage to take part, and organisers are keen to welcome businesses and everyday working vehicles, offering owners a chance to advertise their business vehicle on the day.

Entry costs €20 per vehicle, with all proceeds going to The Alzheimer Society of Ireland.

Anyone unable to attend but who would like to support the charity can do so via the club's fundraising page: idonate.ie/fundraiser/millstreetvintageclub21

Any queries can be directed to Michelle on 087 455 5969.

Millstreet Vintage Club can be found on Facebook (Millstreet Vintage Club), Instagram (@vintagemillstreet) and TikTok (@millstreet.vintage).
