24th - 25th May 2026
A fun day out for all the family,
a great way to start the summer
Originally starting in 1961, Carrington Rally is now in its 63rd year and is run by a complete team of volunteers who are dedicated to keeping the traditional heritage show magic running for new generations to experience.
​
From the magic of the magnificent steam engines, craft and trade stalls to the interactive and working displays there truly is something for everyone to enjoy. Each year our show attracts thousands of people but in an open-air and spacious environment.
​
Carrington Rally is held on the traditional May bank holiday and for 2026 the show will run on Sunday 24th and Monday 25th May, with gates opening to the public at 9am.
NEW FOR 2026
Red Dragon Monster Truck Team
New for our 2026 show, we have the thunderous and adrenaline-fuelled Red Dragon Monster Truck Rides taking place across both show days.
​
Red Dragon is one of the UK's most iconic monster trucks. With its jaw-dropping size, earth-shaking power and unmistakable roar, Red Dragon puts on a spectacle that has to be seen to be believed.
​
Whether you're watching from the stands or brave enough to climb aboard for a ride, Red Dragon delivers a truly unforgettable experience for fans of all ages!
Food stalls
Each year we hand pick a select number of food and drink stalls. Space is limited and demand is high, be sure to book within good time.
Trade stands
From coats to coveralls we have a wide range of stalls at each show. Space is limited so make sure to apply in good time
