Rally GB will move its service park from Deeside to Llandudno for 2019 in an attempt to bring the action closer to the spectators.
It is hoped that the move will introduce the series to more tourists and bring economic benefits to the seaside town.
Rally GB has been based at Deeside for the past six years, since the event relocated to North Wales in 2013.
"We're thrilled to once again be Host County for this prestigious event, but this year is extra special with having the World Championship based in Llandudno," said Councillor Louise Emery, Conwy County Borough Council's Cabinet Member for Economic Development.
"We've worked with Wales Rally GB since 2009, and each year the number of spectators the rally's attracted has increased, and to now have the manufacturers and teams based with us is very exciting.
“The Worldwide media coverage that comes with this event helps put Conwy County well and truly on the map, so we welcome the opportunity to work with the rally team again, especially with the new developments."
Llandudno hosted the opening round of the British Rally Championship earlier this year and is no stranger to rallying action after holding the first World Rally Championship action on closed public roads on British soil during last year’s event.
"Wales Rally GB is one of our flagship events which is well-established in north Wales and a vital part of an international world-series event,” Deputy Minister for Culture, Sport and Tourism, Lord Elis-Thomas said.
“I'm delighted that the organisers are yet again looking at new ways of refreshing and improving the experience for visitors.
“This move will see Llandudno becoming a hub of activity for spectators and competitors and will create an excellent festival atmosphere during the event in October.
“It will also attract visitors who may be new to rallying as a spectator sport.”
