Get ready for Transport Day 2025 – an action-packed event and celebration of all things on wheels!

 

Come and admire an incredible array of vintage and modern vans, trucks, cars, and motorcycles—from classic to contemporary. Whether you’re into gleaming vintage beauties or high-performance models, there’s something for every enthusiast.

 

Once again this year you can take a trip on a heritage bus courtesy of Northampton Transport Heritage. Journeys last 20 minutes and depart from Park Avenue South.

 

There’ll be live music from 'The Buggs' on the bandstand, and you can enjoy vehicle-themed food stalls, like Brooklyn Brownie (a converted ambulance) or Mario’s classic ice cream van—perfect for satisfying your cravings as you stroll around the park.

 

Inside the museum, explore interactive exhibits, including the fascinating Bassett Lowke model railway and fun, activities for kids!

 

Exhibitors and Stallholders: Do you have a stunning vehicle or a stall to showcase? We’d love to hear from you! Email museums@westnorthants.gov.uk for a booking form.

 

An unmissable event—secure your spot today and be part of the action!
