Mayo set to host spectacular windsurfing event

The unique and spectacular event will take place from September 26 to September 28.

The hugely successful Mayo Mayhem Windsurfing event is scheduled to take place on Friday, September 26 to Sunday, September. Mayo Mayhem, powered by RWE, is Ireland’s premier windsurfing event. 

The competition will take place either on the Belmullet Peninsula or Achill Island in County Mayo, depending on wind direction. Returning as a 3-star ranked world tour event, Mayo Mayhem will attract top windsurfers from Ireland and overseas to compete along the Wild Atlantic Way. Expect a spectacular display of colour, skill, courage and adrenaline as riders battle the elements for the Mayo Mayhem 25 title.

This is a really unique fun-filled event with enormous community backing. It’s always a visual spectacle, as athletes compete against massive waves in storm force winds. Competitors are scored on their extreme jump and wave riding skills which has spectators calling it a mix of surfing and motor-cross on water.
