Wow… what an unbelievably BUSY day it’s been at Clumber Park NT! 🤩

It’s been non-stop from the moment we opened, with queues for the rides, families enjoying the fairground games and the whole place absolutely full of life and atmosphere!

And with this beautiful weather on our side ☀️ it really has been the perfect day for a trip to the fair!

Days like this are what it’s all about – fantastic to see so many people out enjoying it.

We’re here every day throughout the Easter holidays, open 10am – 4pm, but only for a few more days, so make sure you catch us while you can!

Seth Carter - The Kings Of Rock And Roll Dodgems King.

We’re absolutely thrilled to have Seth Carter and family joining us on the road this year! ✨

Bringing with them their beautifully decorated, traditional stalls, including the ever-popular Coconut Shy and Penalty Shootout! These are firm family favourites and a wonderful addition to the fair. Seth’s signwriting and traditional artwork really make these pieces something special!

As many of you will know, Carters Steam Fair was the biggest name in the business for over 40 years, so it’s a real privilege to have the last Carters still travelling with us this season.

It’s also fantastic to have Seth back alongside the family’s Steam Yachts and associated transport such as our Atkinson Lorry No. 8 out on the road once again, proper fairground heritage, just as it should be 🤩

And there’s more to come… 👀
More Carters rides will be joining us later in the year, so keep an eye out, you won’t want to miss it!
