EVENTS
31st May & 1st June 2025
GATES OPEN at 10.00pm
PARADE at 2.00pm
Our annual event showcases Steam Engines, Vintage Vehicles, Classic Cars and more. The event brings excitement and education to the general public.
Ring events and parades will enable all the mobile exhibits to be moved on the field (if weather conditions allow).For youngsters these steaming monsters provide both entertainment and education, a total contrast with the high-tec era of the new millennium we now live in. However, many of the older generation will remember steam rollers at work, while before the last world war steam wagons regularly pounded through St. Albans carrying long distance loads. Steam threshing was carried out at local farms, while steam tractors were used to carry stone, farm produce and even house contents within the area.
Some of these machines are now 100 years old, but have been rebuilt many times and will last forever!
