Kids Go Free* at the Summer Extravaganza with the 51st Island Steam Fair

Now in its 51st year, the Island Steam Fair is back for another action-packed year. It’s the bank holiday event on the Island with bundles of fun and explosive acts in the main arena. Enjoy a fabulous collection of vintage transport, traditional fairground, live music & entertainment, plus steam trains running on the line.

A Festival of Steam

At the heart of our show are the mighty steam traction engines. See a fabulous collection of road rollers, showman’s engines and miniatures – these former workhorses make a fabulous sight, particularly when they steam around our main arena.

 

  

Main Arena

The main arena is the place to go for action-packed entertainment. With a busy programme throughout the day, there’s lots to keep everyone in the family enthralled including Stannage Stunt World Show in Action and more to be announced.

The traction engines and historic vehicles like to get involved too. Our famous traction engine games sees them compete in a series of games and challenges.
