A message from the Festival Committee:

“Welcome to Mallow’s brand new Festival which is anchored around three days of great racing in the heart of the beautiful Blackwater Valley, where National Hunt racing has a long and proud tradition. As a hub town we wish to promote Mallow as an important tourist destination, for more information on Mallow visit www.mallow.ie. The town itself will be in festive mood for theweekend with a range of activities and events which will cater for all interests and age groups.

A very special welcome to Mallow people home from abroad, to people from other parts of Ireland and to all the tourists visiting us for the first time,we really hope your stay in the Mallow area is a very enjoyable one. To the locals we say – come out and support the festival, enjoy yourselves and help to establish Racing Home for Easter as a permanent feature in the national calendar of events and festivals. We hope you will marvel at the first class racing, sample the craic, meet people and come back to an even bigger and better festival next year.”
