Great Dorset Steam Fair – arrival…

Standard

The Great Dorset Steam fair is the world’s largest heritage and cultural event, showcasing Great Britain’s National industrial, agricultural and rich leisure legacy… And this year it got much bigger.

2018 marks the 50th Anniversary show and is starring 500 full size steam engines, never before has such a gathering been attempted….

A short drive from the campsite and then organised chaos in entering the site. There are a lot of “travellers” here for the event.

GDSF campsite…

It then took a little while to find an ideal camping spot and to mark out the territory.

Nice big plot…

The GDSF is huge show. Six music venues, 500 steam engimes and lots of stuff to see and do.

A few pictures to follow.
