In June 1996, the Newark Showground in Nottinghamshire became the stage for one of the most remarkable tractor gatherings ever held. Known as the Fordson 500 Vintage Show, it was originally planned as a celebration of Fordson heritage, with the ambitious goal of bringing together 500 tractors in one place. What happened instead was far beyond anyone’s expectations.
Over the course of the weekend, more than 1,000 tractors rolled onto the showground, representing every era of Fordson and Ford’s agricultural engineering. From the earliest 1917 models to later Ford, County, Muir-Hill, and Doe conversions, the lineup was a living timeline of farming history. Collectors and enthusiasts from across the UK and beyond came together to showcase machines that had shaped generations of agriculture.
The event drew an estimated 20,000 visitors, making it not just a tractor rally but a cultural milestone. For many, it was the largest and most memorable Fordson gathering ever staged, cementing Newark’s reputation as a hub for vintage tractor heritage. Even today, the Fordson 500 is remembered as a legendary moment in the vintage tractor world, inspiring future rallies and anniversary celebrations.
