Biddenden Tractorfest

Back for 2022

8th June 2021 – Update

After careful consideration, the Kent County Agricultural Society, in consultation with the Tractorfest organising committee has taken the difficult decision to cancel Biddenden Tractorfest 2021 which was due to take place on the 21st & 22nd August.

Having found a new location, we had hoped it would allow us to safely conduct an event with appropriate visitor numbers. However, parking and getting people to the site continued to present a real challenge. With the safety of our staff, visitors and exhibitors paramount, and given the overall risks involved, we have taken the decision to cancel.

Our society events are central to the rural economy and way of life, and we appreciate how much they mean to members, exhibitors, traders, and visitors. We would like to thank everyone who made plans to join us at the Biddenden Tractorfest, we understand that this postponement will be disappointing for many who look forward to attending each year. We would also like to thank our brilliant committee of volunteers who have been, and continue to be, integral to the running of Biddenden Tractorfest. The last year has been a challenge for us all and we are so thankful for your continued support. Our efforts to find a suitable site for 2022 will continue.

A Jewel of a Festival

Biddenden Tractorfest is an annual event, now entering its 8th year. It is run by the registered charity Kent County Agricultural Society along with a team of volunteers from all walks of life and occupations who are dedicated to making the event both fun and affordable for all the family.

The event is also keen to support and welcome local crafts and businesses and this helps to boost the friendly, easy-going nature of the show.

While tractors remain central to the attracting visitors, the essence of Tractorfest is the provision of a gentle summer day out in a country fair setting with nostalgic sights and sounds. Tractor rides, numerous arena displays such as dog shows, falconry, working horses, craft stalls, children’s entertainment, enticing local artisan food & drink and fantastic live music are just some of the attractions.
