Astle Park Traction Engine Rally
An introduction to the event...
Since the 1960’s the Astle Park Traction Engine Rally has been one of the leading outdoor shows in South Cheshire. Set in magnificent parkland and centrally located this iconic event attracts a large annual following. The spectacular Saturday night firework display is one of the highlights over the weekend.

The event is not just for the Steam enthusiast but it is also a great family day out with hundreds of exhibits on display, attracting visitors from throughout the UK

Very much looking forward to it, I'm sure if the weather holds out it will be one of the best for years. There's a real buzz around and I know that there will be a few extra points of interest this year so see you there!
