Lymm Historic Transport Day

The event runs on Sunday 28 June 2026, and opens with an eclectic vehicle parade through the village at 10.30am, followed by a full day of exhibits and activities on the May Queen Field from 11am to 5pm.

By the canalside we’ll have old working canal boats and a sail past at 4:00pm. On the Henry Street car park will be a fantastic array of steam traction engines, and in the Village Hall we’ll be displaying an eye-popping model railway set-up from 10:30am.

Whilst in Maple Lodge from 11am there’ll be Lego displays and the chance for kids to have fun with some bricks.

As ever, we’ve some special attractions this year – including a chance to see the Jeep from the film ‘Jurassic Park’ and Bolton steeplejack Fred Dibnah‘s iconic Land Rover. Plus – take to the skies in the seat of a new flight simulator!

Please note that the park and ride service this year will run from Lymm High School, Oughtrington Lane, Lymm WA13 0RB where there will be just 200 spaces for cars. Entry fee is £3 to include reserved parking and your return bus ride to and from the village.  All tickets are to be purchased online in advance (via this webpage) and to be bought with your entry tickets.  Please book early as they are sure to sell out quickly.

 There will be NO PARKING on the Crouchley Lane field this year.

This is sadly beyond our control and we therefore ask visitors to walk or use public transport where possible. If you need to drive into the village, please park considerately. Please see the ‘Tickets and Maps’ page of the Transport Day website for more details.
