The next Great Manawatu Steam fair will be 17th & 18th March 2018. This will celebrate 55 years since the first club steaming and 20 years of the steam fair its self. If anyones thinking of a trip to New Zealand that would be the time to visit. If you need any more information just message me. Thanks Marty Kiwisteam

Hi Martyn, Are you having a road run at the 2018 event like you did for the 50th?
Cheers,

Mike.

Yes there is talk of having a road run for the 2018 Steam Fair but run route and destination not yet confirmed.
