A major event like the Eifel Rallye Festival naturally thrives on pictures. Photos for the print media, press releases and our own publications. Often enough, these photos just say ‘McKlein’ or ‘RBHahn’. Who is behind them? Well, they are great, committed people who are more than just good photographers. We will be introducing our ERF photo team over the next few days.

"The starting field will be very colourful and diverse," is how Reinhard Klein (Cologne) describes the entry list for the 12th edition of the Eifel Rallye Festival. When from August 15th to 17th over one hundred and fifty contemporary witnesses to rally history transform the Volcanic Eifel around Daun into the largest rally museum on wheels, fans will experience an impressive cross-section of the sport's history. "There will be just over a handful of vehicle types that are represented twice. From A for Alfa Romeo or Alpine to Citroën, DAF, Hyundai, MG, Peugeot, Rover and VW, almost every manufacturer that has ever been active in rallying will be represented.

"It always hurts not to be able to say ‘yes’ to everyone who wants to come to our Festival with their historic rally car. We had to close the application for entries, otherwise the list of cancellations would have become even longer," says Reinhard Klein (Cologne), explaining the early closure of the application for a entry in the Twelfth edition of the ADAC Eifel Rallye Festival to be held from August 15th to17th, 2024.

The rush to enter the 12th edition of the ADAC Eifel Rallye Festival that is to be held between August 15th and 17th 2024 around Daun in the Volcanic Eifel is, once more, simply amazing. There were eighty-nine entries within the first 24 hours, and after 100 hours there were already one hundred and twenty-seven registrations for this Festival, the largest “mobile rally museum”.

The twelfth edition of the ADAC Eifel Rallye Festival will take place in the Volcanic Eifel from August 15th to 17th, 2024. More than one hundred and sixty original or faithfully rebuilt cars from the history of rallying with their owners will once again transform Daun and the surrounding area into the largest rolling rally museum. Up to forty thousand fans will follow the 'thunder' as the vehicles are driven over the challenging asphalt stages.
