Ireland BikeFest Killarney 2017 this June Bank Holiday weekend, marks the eleventh anniversary of Ireland’s biggest free open biker festival.
The festival takes place from Friday June 2nd to Monday June 5th and will see motorcycle owners and enthusiasts gather from across Ireland, Europe and as far away as the USA.
The event hopes to again see big numbers flock to County Kerry, and chosen charity Muscular Dystrophy Ireland will be hoping to rally support for their fundraising efforts culminating with the draw for their National Harley-Davidson Raffle on Sunday June 4th, where one lucky punter will have the opportunity to win a magnificent Harley-Davidson Street 750 motorcycle, presented to them live at the event.
The raffle has received great support in recent years from both the public and well known figures such as Michael and Danny Healy-Rae and Kerry GAA Star Kieran Donaghy. Monies raised will go to fund essential supports and services for people affected by muscular dystrophy across Ireland. Muscular dystrophy is a rare, muscle-wasting condition that is estimated to affect approximately 1,500 people across Ireland. There is no known cure.
While tickets will be available from the Muscular Dystrophy Ireland tent in the BikeFest Village from Friday June 2nd, members of the public who won’t be able to attend Ireland BikeFest, or simply cannot wait to enter, can do so on the charity’s website: www.mdi.ie
