CANNONBALL, the action packed Supercar spectacle in aid of the Make a Wish Foundation is the largest organised road trip in Europe with 180 supercars and over 150,000 spectators expected to line the streets all over Ireland. Sponsored by Manhattan Popcorn, CANNONBALL went up a gear once again and super cars were on display from 9am so that spectators could get up close and personal whilst soaking up the electric atmosphere. Soap stars Ryan Thomas from Coronation St and Adam Thomas from Emmerdale joined Charlie’s Angels; Yomika, Karena and Martha, as well as model Michelle McGrath who will be playing Belle in Beauty and the Beast, she has also recorded a duet with Keywest for their new album and her band Liir have a new single out in January. Some of the most unique cars in the world were shipped in for the event this year and the gleaming convoy drives through 900KM of Irish open roads through Dublin, Leitrim, Sligo, The Wild Atlantic Way, Killaloe, Killarney, Cahir and finishing in Wexford this Sunday.
