THE Clitheroe Young Farmers Christmas Tractor Run 2024 will take place on:- 22 December 2024, from:- 6:30 PM.

This year's event promises to be bigger and brighter than ever! The Christmas Tractor Run will have around 150 tractors, decorated in festive lights and Christmas Music, thaking part in the procession. The event is just over an hour away from Liverpool, plus it is free to attend and great for all ages.

This is a magical sight for the whole community and all for a good cause!

Meg Goring, who is the Club Chair of Clitheroe Young Farmers told us:- "We're raising funds for the Clitheroe Young Farmers, a local youth charity and Yellow Wellies farm safety, supporting mental health awareness in rural communities. We'll also be introducing a Quiet Zone along the route (from leaving West Bradford to the start of Waddington), designed to be more inclusive for those who may struggle with loud noises or sensory overload."

Here are some of the key highlights:-

150 Tractors with festive decorations.
Santa will be there!
Mobile disco bringing music to the streets.
Prizes for the best-dressed spectator (under 10s) and the best photograph of the event.
We are aiming to light up pendle hill as we travel over the nick of Pendle.
This free family event is a great way to gear up for Christmas at a very expensive time of year!

Meg Goring added:- "Please remeber that this is a fantastic opportunity to celebrate the season, highlight the incredible work of our farmers, and support an important cause. We'd be incredibly grateful if you could share details about the event in advance to help us reach as many people as possible. Last year 100s of people attended the event, raising over £10,000 for Sepsis UK and Clitheroe YFC."
