Knockhill and the McRae Family regretfully announce the postponement of the McRae Rally Challenge event that was scheduled to take place at Knockhill on 3rd & 4th October 2020. In addition, the Evening with the Stars and the Celebratory Dinner have also been postponed. A summer 2021 date is being worked on and will be announced once availability of the McRae family, key stars, the venue and host hotel are all confirmed.
Knockhill Director of Events, Stuart Gray added, “We are all disappointed to announce the postponement of this special event, but there are too many variables and unknowns to proceed with any certainty. It’s an event for the fans; for the fans of Jimmy, Alister, of young Max and of course fans of Colin to celebrate his remarkable career. Ultimately, with a star studded line up, rally forum and special dinner, the main focus of the event was to allow fans to get up-close and personal with some of the world’s most famous rallying greats. With the current pandemic, enforced social distancing and the limitations on rally driving itself, the only option available to us is to postpone.
“Speaking with the McRae family, we are all determined to make next year’s event even better to make up for this delay. News about any tickets purchased for October will be announced soon but anything already bought will be valid for the 2021 event with refunds given if required. We hope all the rally fans understand the decision and look forward to the new event in the summer of 2021.”
The team at Knockhill will be in touch very soon, to run your various ticketing options. We do hope that the vast majority of you will choose to roll your tickets over to the 2021 event. Again, thank you for all your support in the last few months.
Everyone at Knockhill is looking forward to what remains of the 2020 season, with renewed vigour to ensure that 2021 is more than worth the wait for race and rally fans.
