About us
Rally New Zealand is the longest running world championship event in both New Zealand and the Southern Hemisphere. It was first been included as a round of the World Rally Championship in 1977. Since then its status has grown internationally, with the 2001 event being awarded the WRC Rally of the Year award. The event celebrated its 39th year in 2008 and its third consecutive year based in Hamilton.
Rally New Zealand, the event, is run by Rally of New Zealand Ltd, a not-for-profit organisation owned in partnership by MotorSport New Zealand and a number of its member car clubs.
A huge number of highly skilled, dedicated volunteers help make the event a continued success in conjunction with a small staff.
