Calling owners of vintage & classic cars


Cork’s biggest car show will take place this weekend with proceeds going to charity, writes Trish Whelan.

The Cork International Hotel is to host the Cork Car Show and organisers want to make this the biggest and best car show yet.

They are calling on owners of vintage cars, classic cars, a Harley or Goldwing to get in touch and attend the show on this coming Sunday 7 April.

The annual event is now in its third year and is held in aid of Cork charity, the Rainbow Club. This is a support service for children who have autism or who are on the autism spectrum. The event will feature American cars and bikes in addition to some very special vintage cars.

General Manager of the Cork International Hotel, Carmel Lonergan, said: “We are doing a special call-out for owners of vintage and classic cars to get in touch as we would love to see you and your car on the day.”

The Rainbow Club Cork Centre for Autism is the hotel’s charity partner for 2019. The Rainbow Club is hoping to raise €2 million to fund a new facility in Little Island. 

In addition to fundraising efforts, the hotel plans to work towards making its environment for guests with autism more inclusive by tailoring its facilities. It is also providing its team with awareness training. The hotel will now be working with the Rainbow Club to determine the additions and changes at the hotel.

Anyone that would like to register to take part in the car show can email Sandra Murphy on smurphy@trigonhotels.com. Entry is €5 for adults and free for kids and all proceeds from the day will go to the Rainbow Club. The event is on from11am to 5.30pm next Sunday. 

The Cork International Hotel is situated directly opposite Cork Airport - a 10 minute drive from Cork City.
