Get ready for the steam fair

0

THE Cheshire Steam Fair takes place at Daresbury, near Warrington on Saturday and Sunday July 12 and 13 – and promises a huge number of exhibits from all over the UK.
More than 35 steam engines will take part and a number of fairground organs – not to mention hundreds of vintage cars, lorries, buses etc, classic motorcycles, military vehicles and vintage tractors.
These exhibits will have static positions around the event but will also participate in main arena parades.
There will also be the amazing opportunity to help drive a steam engine! An action packed arena programme will commence at 11am and run throughout the day until 5pm.
New this year is the stunt man Jez Avery’s show providing a thrilling display to entertain young and old alike.
Jez is an extremely experienced performer with numerous Guinness World Records to his name.
Also featuring in the arena is the K92000 Dog Display team, consisting of various highly trained breeds of pet dogs and their handlers.
There will be old time and modern funfair rides, quad rides, puppet show, slides, climbing wall and, by popular demand, Ken Fox’s Wall of Death – the oldest surviving Wall of Death in the UK.
Trade stands, an indoor craft, gift and fine food marquee, licensed bar and other catering outlets will be open all day.
Gates open at 10am and close at 5pm on both days.
Admission prices are £8 for adults, £7 for over 65s, £4 for under 16s and £20 for a family (2 adults and up to 3 children).
Under 5s are free.
For those wanting a full weekend of entertainment, a pre-booked camping and caravanning pitch costs just £35 per pitch which includes family admission (two adults and up to three children).
