What's on at Cheshire Steam Fair?

  • Main Arena Mayhem: Front and centre, the West Lancs Dog Display Team take over the arena with a fast-paced, music-powered showcase of talent, teamwork and jaw-dropping stunts. From heroic takedowns of “armed” muggers to leaping through flaming hoops and tackling tough obstacles, these dogs steal the show, every single time!

It’s loud, intense and totally addictive — a thrilling motorsport showdown of skill, strength and horsepower
