Hello motorcycle road race fans, we have set this page up to provide a platform to keep you up to date on our plans for the Ulster Grand Prix to return in 2027.
We have had several constructive meetings with various departments and agencies since the press release back in November at Stormont.
These include the local residents, Lisburn & Castlereagh City Council, local MLA's, Open-reach, DFI Roads department Lisburn area.
Other meetings are positive and ongoing with several potential sponsors already contacted the business management team.
Great to have Des Stewart and the Ulster Grand Supporter Club behind the plans.
We will need all the support of the fans to insure this event returns with a "World Class" event.
If you could like and share the page please and show your support in a small way.
Meantime we will post the press releases published to date.

Credits - Our thanks to Pacemaker Press, Stephen Davison for our cover photo.
