About This Event
JDM Classics Ireland bring the Irish Japanese car scene to Mondello Park in County Kildare for a Sunday of show and shine displays, track action and meet ups. Classic builds and modern performance cars share the paddock, with open spectator banks and a covered grandstand looking over the circuit.
1What to Expect
The November meet runs on Sunday 8 November 2026, with gates open to the public from 10:00 to 18:00.
Japanese built cars on show range from classic builds to modern performance cars, with show and shine displays, track action and meet ups through the day.
Viewing is from open spectator banks and a covered grandstand, plus a step free spectator area with a clear view of the track.
This is the second JDM Classics day at Mondello Park in 2026, after the March meet.
2Best Way to Experience It
- One ticket covers the whole day from 10:00 to 18:00, so the displays and the track sessions both fit in.
- Gates to the paddock open at set times during events for all visitors, which is the way in to see the cars up close.
