JapFest 2022 - Mondello Park

JapFest 2022

Japfest 2022

Having hosted European Driftmasters and Adam LZ Festival at Mondello Park in 2022, Japfest is back, bigger and bolder than ever!

The biggest Japanese car show in Ireland will take place on the 9th of October, an unrivalled celebration of Japanese culture. An incredible line-up of drifting’s biggest names, wildest cars, and unbelievable action await at this adrenaline-pumping event! 

Off-track, there is plenty to entertain with more than 500 of the best’ Show and Shine’ JDM cars and more than 50 Japanese car clubs in Ireland, along with trade stands and food stands. Each of the selected show cars will compete for trophies in multiple categories, including Best in Show, Best Car Club, Best JDM Classic, and Best Engine Build. 

Considering how popular JDM and Irish Drifting have become, we expect this year’s contest to be the most competitive yet!
