Great Dorset Steam Fair

- the largest event of its kind in Western Europe

A hugh gathering of working vintage agricultural machinery- tractors, threshing machines, and working heavy horses. Shire Horses.

The Showman's Fairground Engines at Dusk

Not forgetting the fabulous line up of Showman's Fairground Steam Engines and the Fair itself at night. Ride the ferris wheel (big wheel). See riders on the Wall of Death. The sites and sounds of the Heavy Haulage Arena. Great Dorset Steam Fair. Far more than a traction engine rally, a way of life.
