There will be at least six traction engines and a steam roller affectionately known as "rattling monsters" in operation within the park, with rides behind a traction engine over all three days.

Machinery will be present from right across the eastern seaboard and will start arriving on Thursday. Australia Fair, the magnificent fairground organ will be playing what is regarded as the happiest music on earth during the event.

This year will see the return of the grand parade every day at 12 noon.

Australia's champion whip cracker Fiona Wilks will present two shows daily along with miniature steam train rides, jumping castles , fire engines and vintage tractors along with many of Timbertown's favourites.

The theme park's  Town Crier will help direct visitors to the many attractions.

Timbertown's famous Steam Train will run continuously during the three day event, completing up to 150 trips.

Entry includes all demonstrations and heritage rides.
