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.

The principal International FICC Youth Rally is held every Easter.  The FICC Youth Rallies are intended to enable campers aged between 14 and 30 years old from all   countries of the world get together and form bonds of friendship. 

The rallies take place in a different country of the FICC each year and the country to organise the Rally is appointed by the FICC Youth Commission. The organising country is free to choose the necessary measures to make the FICC Youth Rally a complete success. 

The main objective of an FICC Youth Rally is to further friendship among young campers from all around the world and the camping event normally has a program of cultural, tourist, and sporting activities to meet this objective.

The 58th FICC Youth Rally was held during Easter 8th - 13th April 2009 at Santiago Northern Spain. The rally was hosted by the Youth FICC.  We are delighted to have had a number of our younger club members in attendance.

The 2011 Easter Rally will be in Helsinki, Finland.

2010 Easter Rally will be in Rome, Italy from 31st March to 5th April.  It promises to  be a good one.  Details of the 60th Youth Rally are available for download as follows.
