Steam Back to the Forties
We’ll meet again… on September 19 and 20!
Our famous Forties weekend is back! Swing back in time for a weekend of all day live music, stunning classic vehicles, vintage trade stands, historical displays, and wartime fashions at all three of our stations, all accompanied by a frequent steam service.
Those looking to show off their dance moves will be able to enjoy two full days of live music and a brand new dancefloor at Holt – performers and timings for each station to be announced soon.
Visitors are encouraged to join in the fun and dress in suitable period clothing – either civilian or allied uniforms.
It is not permitted to wear German military uniforms or those of other Axis nations – visitors dressed in such uniforms will be refused entry.
