Sunday 03 September 2023
A unique celebration of Shuttleworth's Steam and Agricultural Heritage, accompanied by a thrilling air display. As well as a unique opportunity to enjoy world-class resident exhibits on parade; witness some of the UK’s finest examples of heritage steam engines, motor vehicles and aircraft.
Bedfordshire has always been lucrative arable farming country, so where better to enjoy some of the trendsetters of the agricultural industry!
The Shuttleworth Trust was established in 1944, to recognise the legacy of Richard Shuttleworth. As he grew up in an era of great change, with the introduction of steam powered travel and later the combustion engine, the Bedfordshire Vintage Air Show plans to not only honour his great interest, but also to showcase all the important vehicles and aircraft that were at the forefront of engineering for their time.
