To visit the official FICC Web Site www.ficc.org FICC 2007 - Millstreet Ireland In 2007 Millstreet, County Cork played host to the 73rd International Camping and Caravanning in the event’s third visit to Ireland. With 37 camping and caravanning clubs from 22 different countries attending, 1,360 units, that is over 3200 visitors have descended upon Millstreet for the duration of this 12-day rally. The Irish Camping and Caravan Club, who played host to the event, are hoping the rally will help to promote and develop the camping and caravanning sector while fostering a real interest in a healthy outdoor lifestyle. The people and businesses of Millstreet added hugely to the event with their level of hospitality and goodwill shown to the visitors. Providing a wonderful opportunity to extend a traditional Irish welcome to all our like-minded overseas visitors, the rally organisers hope the event will provide a unique platform to promote the Irish Camping & Caravanning sector and Ireland as a quality caravanning destination.
