Bromyard Gala

Description

The Gala is a combination of old country show and rally of steam engines and vintage vehicles which has developed in its 44 year history into one of the most popular events in the summer calendar, with something for every member of the family.  The 66 acre site at Birchyfields is an ideal location with stunning views of the countryside, yet within easy walking distance of Bromyard town centre with its range of shops, pubs and restaurants.

The Gala has all the features of a good old time country show with attractions ranging from prize winning Hereford Cattle to the annual egg throwing contest. See the rare breeds, poultry, country crafts and many more features of country life and sport both old and new. There are large marquees for competitive handicrafts, gardening, food fair, craft sales, local trade group, rabbits and cavies etc.  You can take the weight off your feet and sit down to watch the
continuous programme of events in the main arena or listen to music all day on the bandstand.

The steam rally section of the Gala is one of the best events of its type, with a fine turnout of Traction Engines, Steam Rollers, Vintage and Classic Caravans, Arena Parades plus working demonstrations of steam powered Threshing and sawing.  The Gala is a National Traction Engine Trust Authorised event.

There is camping adjacent to the festival site.
