Dayinsure Wales Rally GB, Britain’s round of the FIA World Rally Championship, is delighted to announce that North Wales Tourism has been appointed as the Official Accommodation Partner for this year’s prestigious event (4-7 October).
 
Last year’s Dayinsure Wales Rally GB attracted more than 100,000 visitors plus a full 150 car entry with fans and teams travelling from 24 countries to experience one of the most hallowed events on the World Championship calendar.       
 
Being such a global attraction, the rally already brings £9.4m of economic benefit to Wales. The partnership with Colwyn Bay-based North Wales Tourism (NWT) will assist spectators, competitors, teams, officials and media with their accommodation requirements across the region. 
 
It also adds another important partnership to the event’s large engagement with local businesses in the area.
 
“We are absolutely delighted to be working with Dayinsure Wales Rally GB on one of the biggest sporting events to come to north Wales,” enthused Jim Jones, Managing Director of North Wales Tourism.
 
“It’s events like this that continue to promote and shape north Wales’s profile on an international scale. Our passion is to make sure the teams, officials, organisers, media and visitors coming from all over the globe for four days of adrenalin fuelled competition have a great Welsh welcome.”
