The Christmas Racing Festival at Limerick Racecourse this year is from the 26th to the 29th of December 2009.  If you love horse racing, then this event will be great for you, with great entertainment, food and fun for all.  This four day event is a family favourite. The action kicks off at 12.30pm each day with 7 different hunt races ran every day. Christmas is a busy time in Limerick, full of magic and adventure. If you come from further afield, book your Irish car hire within plenty of time, the rush for hired cars will be intense at Christmas time so make sure you win at least one race during the event and book on-line now.
