Tractor Fest returns to Newby Hall this summer, marking its 19th anniversary as the UK's largest tractor festival.
The famous tractor spectacle will be held over the weekend of Saturday 7th and Sunday 8th June.
More than 100 acres of the stately estate will become home to more than 1,500 vintage and modern tractors and another 1,000 exhibits including stationary engines, commercial vehicles, cars, trucks and motorcycles.
Organised by the Yorkshire Vintage Association (YVA), Tractor Fest has grown over 19 years to become the UK’s largest tractor show.
Kevin Watson, chair of the YVA, said:
“We are very proud to partner with Newby Hall to stage Tractor Fest which is held in great affection by our members and the thousands of visitors we attract every year.
“Enthusiasts and families are in for a treat of a weekend with Newby Hall and its award-winning gardens providing a super location for Tractor Fest which has something for everyone.”
Among this year’s highlights will be two celebrations – 100 years of the American Caterpillar brand and 80 years of the Fordson E27N tractor.
Tractor Fest will also mark 100 years of Kramer, a rare German tractor marque.
A host of entertainment, crafts, food and drink will be on offer at the show and admission includes access to Newby’s gardens, adventure playground, dolls house and teddy bear exhibitions.
Tractor Fest is sponsored by Europe’s leading agricultural and machinery auctioneer Cheffins, Econ Engineering, Brockhills and nci insurance services.
The show is also supported by Ripon Farm Services and the National Vintage Tractor & Engine Club.
Cheffins chairman Bill King said:
“Cheffins is celebrating its 200th anniversary this year and to mark this momentous occasion we are taking the Cheffins charity tractor to Tractor Fest.
“This wonderful Fordson Super Dexta will be going under the hammer as part of our October Vintage Sale with all of the proceeds going to the new Cambridgeshire Children’s Hospital.
“We look forward to welcoming enthusiasts and visitors to come and have a look at the Fordson at Tractor Fest which has grown to become one of the most popular shows in the country.”
