Saffron walden crank up
The Saffron Walden Crank Up is organised annually on behalf of the East Anglian Traction Engine Society. The show is run by a small committee of dedicated local volunteers each with a keen interest in vintage vehicles and the way of life associated with them. Thanks go to committee member Philip Clarke for organising this event.
The next event is on Saturday 25th - Sunday 26th April 2026, held at Carver Barracks, on the former Debden Aerodrome.
Come along and see huge traction engines, and smaller ones too! Vintage vehicles of all sorts, tractors, stationary engines, fairground organs and a host of bygone attractions.
There will be a vintage funfair too, trade and craft stalls, hot and cold refreshments available, as well as a beer tent.
Fun for all the family! Gates open 10:00. Children 15 and Under are FREE.
Online tickets will be available soon, check back for updates!
We are looking for volunteers to help with the setting up of this event, marshals and section heads, please get in touch with us if you would like to help out at our 2026 show.
