Cannonball, the supercar spectacle, is set to take place on September 12-14, with Ballymaloe in Cork among the locations to be taken in on the national route.

Cannonball, fuelled by milesPLUS from Circle K, is the largest organised road trip in Europe featuring some of the finest cars on the planet — from Ferrari, Lamborghini and McLaren, to Porsche, Aston Martin and Maserati. There are more than 200,000 spectators expected, with free festivals organised across the route.

The Jack and Jill Children’s Foundation is the official charity partner for Cannonball 2025.

It is a charity that provides in-home nursing care, respite support, and end-of-life care for children up to the age of six with severe learning disabilities and complex medical needs.

The charity also provides end-of-life care for all children up to age six, regardless of diagnosis and allowing families to care for their child at home during their final days.

Along with Ballymaloe, the Cannonball route also will take in Tralee, Killarney, Clare, Sligo, Cavan and concludes in Naas.

Cannonball has already raised €2,024,809 for Irish children’s charities.

Presenters PJ Gallagher and Jim McCabe from Radio Nova are looking forward to the upcoming fundraising drive for Jack and Jill.

“We broadcasted our show from the start line at Cannonball last year and we were blown away by the atmosphere and the buzz of it all.

“We can’t wait to be there at the start line at Johnstown Estate again on September 12.

“We’ve long been supporters of the Jack & Jill Children’s Foundation and are proud to help raise awareness for what promises to be a spectacular fundraiser for this fantastic charity.”
