Roll Up, Roll Up! The Mini Vintage Fun Fair Returns to Rufford This May!

Running from Saturday 3rd to Monday 5th May, 10 AM – 4 PM, this is your chance to experience the magic of classic fairground fun – just like the good old days.
✨ Take a spin on beautifully restored rides from the 1950s, 60s, and 70s, including the legendary Peacock Ride, a true fairground gem built way back in 1906. Whether you're reliving childhood memories or making new ones with your own family, the atmosphere is guaranteed to bring smiles all round.
Enjoy timeless attractions like the Penny Arcade, try your strength at the Striker, and whizz down the colourful Helter Skelter. With attractions starting from just £2.50, it's a fun day out for everyone. (Please note: some attractions are cash only, so come prepared!)
Set against the beautiful backdrop of Rufford Abbey's historic grounds, this is more than just a funfair – it's a full-on nostalgia trip perfect for families, couples, and anyone who loves a bit of vintage magic.
