The Athletics Ireland Road Race Licence is a system whereby the governing body helps to ensure that the essential organisational requirements for a road race are in place to ensure the safety of all concerned and consistency in race organisation standards across the country.

This system ensures a very competitive rate of event insurance cover.

Please select the permit/licence application path below that best suits your event requirements.

Anybody applying for a trail running event permit must contact the Athletics Ireland office in advance.

Distances longer than a marathon cannot be covered by an Athletics Ireland permit.
