Umeå is for the second time the host city for the WRC competition Rally Sweden on 15-18 February 2024-
Over 120 million TV viewers will follow the motor party which is Sweden's largest annual sporting event. WRC takes place in 13 different places around the world, and Umeå is unique as it is the only winter rally in the competition.
The organizers of the Rally Sweden, which is set to host the second round of the 2024 FIA World Rally Championship season, have announced the date of next year’s event and it is set to be hosted on 15-18 February 2024.
The competition is organized for the third time in the Umeå area in Northern Sweden. Previously, the rally was held in Värmland, but it was moved further north to guarantee better snow conditions for the only full snow rally on the calendar.
The program of next year’s rally will again include a special stage that runs through the crowd favorite at the Red Barn Arena, which is located right next to the center of Umeå. The itinerary will be presented later but fan-favorite stages such as Umeå Sprint, Brattby, Norrby, and Västervik are expected to return for the 2024 schedule.
