Truckfest North West 2022. Went along with the family, had a belting day. Trucks of every shape, size and type. Swamp Thing monster truck, Broke FMX display. Truck related show stalls selling everything from LED lights and air horns to air fresheners and waterless wash.
Little fun fair for the kids with lorry delivered rides, a giant inflatable slide and even mini trucks for the little ones to drive. This years truckfest must have was a cowboy hat. Fin is still wearing his today!
My brother is a truck mechanic & it was him that first put us on to truckfest. We missed a couple of years (thanks covid) but went again this year and it was as good as the pre plague times. We keep threatening to go to the Peterborough one but have never yet made it. Maybe next year.
My brother was there as an exhibitor in his truck repair / recovery van which he had spent a good while shining up to make sure it was looking it’s best! He was next to one of his trucks. He camped for the weekend and said it was brilliant to see everywhere all lit up in the evening. If we do go to Peterborough next year, we’ll be camping.
The broke FMX display was great, one of the team riders misjudged the gap between the two ramps on his first jump and ended up landing way too long and came off his bike. Being a double hard northern lad from Preston, he jumped back up, brushed himself off and did the rest of the show without missing a beat.
Swamp thing monster truck was as entertaining as you would think, many cars were crushed and much noise was generated!
Live music all day long from a trailer stage and food stalls selling hot goodies.
