THE Get Connected Mewla Rally will return to the Protyre Motorsport UK Asphalt Rally Championship in 2027, marking its first appearance in the series since 2021. The popular event, held on the Epynt Ranges in Mid Wales, is one of two rallies returning to the championship calendar next season alongside the Legend Fires North West Stages Rally.

The Mewla Rally is included in a seven-round championship schedule that will run from February to September, with competitors tackling some of the UK's best closed-road asphalt events.

Organised and promoted by the BTRDA, the championship remains one of Britain's leading sealed-surface rally series and will continue to welcome a wide range of cars and crews through its inclusive class structure.

Championship co-ordinator Paul Wakely said he was particularly pleased to see the Welsh event return.

"We're delighted to welcome back to the championship the Legend Fires North West Stages Rally for the first time since 2024 and the Get Connected Mewla Rally for the first time since 2021," he said.

The Mewla Rally's return means the championship will once again visit Wales, Scotland, the Isle of Man and England during the 2027 campaign, giving crews the opportunity to compete on a variety of challenging asphalt stages.

The 2027 championship will begin with the Andy's Autos East Riding Stages Rally on 13-14 February and conclude with the Hills Ford Stages on 18-19 September. The Get Connected Mewla Rally will take place on 29 August and is expected to be one of the highlights of the season for Welsh competitors and supporters.
