The Great Dorset Steam Fair (abbreviated GDSF, and since 2010 also known as The National Heritage Show) is an annual show featuring steam-powered vehicles and machinery. It now covers 600 acres and runs for five days. It is reputedly the largest collection of steam and vintage equipment to be seen anywhere in the world. The fair was founded by the Dorset Steam & Historic Vehicle Club, and has been held in Dorset, England, every summer since 1969. The most numerous exhibits are traction engines, tractors and farm machinery, but there are also sections for classic cars and commercial vehicles, working shire horses, rustic crafts, 'bygones' displays, and more. The show also has a market, autojumble, live music and funfair (some of which is powered by the steam engines).

This made my night watching the Great Dorset Steam Fair. Lots of work and excellently captured, Syd. Went to the Gloucester Steam Fair in 2018 and I could not get enough, just a fraction of this and I could not get enough. Greetings from Durban, South Africa.

Not been to a steam fair since Burtonwood about 1976....I really must make the effort to go to the GDSF next year!

It is not on 2023. They have financial issues. Everyone is keeping fingers crossed that it has not closed permanently.

A great shame it was cancelled in 2023, let's hope and pray it comes back for 2024...

Unfortunately it's been cancelled so far, The rise in Costs have become unviable for it to run

Thank you, Syd 🙂 I can’t quite believe that the GDSF hasn’t been on my bucket list before but it is now!

Try to spend more than 1 day there. Even 2 days is not enough.

I see you had a harrowing experience ! One of the perks of the photographer vest ? Also surprised to see 2 Mk1V tanks there, I thought there was only 1 running replica.
