The Erne Boat Rally is a river gathering enjoyed by boating enthusiasts and waterway lovers from across Ireland. It brings people together on the River Erne for boating, entertainment, friendship and fellowship.
The Main Boat Rally traditionally takes place at the end of May or beginning of June, with the Mini Rally later in the year, usually in early September.
Over the years, the Rally has grown into one of Ireland’s best-loved boating fixtures, with crews returning year after year to enjoy the waterway, the company and the designated stops along the route.
