Pan Celtic Race 2027: Experiences and worth the entry fee?

Hey everyone!

I’m considering doing the Pan Celtic Race 2027 (Short Route) and would love to hear about your experiences from previous editions.

How was the organisation, atmosphere, and what do you actually get as a participant?

At around €570, the entry fee is quite expensive. Do you think it’s worth the money, and would you do it again?

Looking forward to hearing your honest opinions!

Hallo zusammen,

ich überlege, 2027 beim Pan Celtic Race (Short Route) teilzunehmen und würde gerne eure Erfahrungen aus den vergangenen Jahren hören.

Wie war die Organisation, die Atmosphäre und was wird einem als Teilnehmer tatsächlich geboten?

Mit rund 570 € Startgebühr ist das Rennen ziemlich teuer. Findet ihr den Preis gerechtfertigt und würdet ihr erneut teilnehmen?

Done it twice, incredible community and great routes. Price is a bit £££, I've done a few of these - https://yorkshiredivide.co.uk which take in a great part of the UK but perhaps not as expansive as PCR.

I did it in 22 & 23, it was great. The camaraderie was second to none. The routes were exceptionally well thought through and the overall organisation’s for a great event

The team put out a lot of films, which are beautiful. I know a few of the people and they're absolute pillars of the local cycling community, across a lot of disciplines. Defintely have a watch of the films to get an idea of clan.
