Every
year during the month of August, Dingle plays host to the
famous Dingle Races. Spread over three days, this meeting is a
must for all racing fans. Planning a holiday to Dingle during
this time will require pre-booked accommodation as
availability will always be tight.
Many
well-known personalities and politicians have visited the
Dingle Races over the years including Ted Kennedy, Bob Dole,
Charlie Haughey, Alan Dukes, Julie Roberts, Mary Black, JP
McManus, Aiden McGuire and Bertie Ahern.

The
Dingle Races is one of the oldest meetings in the
country with a deep and proud tradition. In recent years
it has developed enormously and is now the biggest
flapper meeting in the country and attracts huge crowds
to the Dingle Peninsula.
Set in a
most scenic location, the magnificent Ballintaggart
Course enjoys a spectacular panoramic view of both the
bay and harbour and is an ideal venue for a family
outing.
Live
music groups are lined up to perform for the event,
while amusements and full bar and snack facilities will
be available to the punters.
