Our 2010 programme starts in January with the Lamma Machinery Launch show in Newark (UK) The Ernest Doe spectacular of 400 acres of demonstrations of new and vintage equipment with the Ford New Holland Factory visit, Sima Show Paris with farm visits in Belgium, Cambridge Vintage Spring and Autumn Sales, Royal Highland and Royal Welsh shows, a unique and interesting tour to Southern Spain and farms. The highly attended Agritechnica Show in Hannover with farm and machinery dealer visits in Holland. These are just a sample of what we have on offer.
With careful planning of itineraries and designated events throughout Europe, our priority is delivering value for money tours that are interesting to people with varying interests.
Join us on one or more of these tours to enhance your knowledge. These tours have been planned personally by Damian McKenna with over 30 years experience in agriculture. Whether its livestock, machinery or new up to date innovations, Damian will be at hand to lead you into the 21st century on these specialised tours.

The HMT Show is undoubtedly the biggest collection of Vintage tractors on the planet! With over 2000 tractors on display we will see everything from the earliest European Hanomag and Allis Chalmers models to American Mustangs and Bristol Crawlers. In 2010 there will be an interesting collection of the first Fendt tractors, ranging from 19hp – a far cry from the Fendt tractors of today! We’ll see B.M.B. Presidents, Farmall Cubs, early Volvos from Scandinavia and ex-army Volvos with almost no hours on the clock. There’ll be hundreds of Ferguson TE20s and many small one and two cylinder European tractors, as well as a limited number of David Brown 50Ds, all the way from Sweden.
The Great Dorset Steam Fair is widely recognised as the leading event of its type in the UK and, indeed, in Europe. It is held on a mammoth 600 acre site near Blandford Forum and is annually attended by over 300,000 visitors. The Show is also a music festival with 5 massive marquees of live music, a craft fair and a market place for that piece you have been looking for for years. This is the biggest display of vintage transport in the country, and the largest Fair Ground you’ll ever see. Overall there are more than 200 working steam engines and 100 fairground organs together with over 2000 other working exhibits. Everything in engineering from around the world is assembled in one place for your enjoyment. Let Kavanagh Travel whisk you off to enjoy this extravaganza!
