The Big Bus Show – Stonham Barns Park
Stonham Barns Park will be staging The Big Bus Show again on Sunday 10 August that will feature the form of transport loved by many … in all shapes, colours and sizes.
The Big Bus Show will see a collection of around 100 historic and modern buses – and other vehicles featuring transport through time – on display for enthusiasts of all ages to enjoy. The show will feature buses & coaches ranging from the 1930s to the present day. There will also be a selection of model displays on show too.
Visitors to the show will have the opportunity to vote for the Visitors Choice this year kindly Sponsored by Tony Freeman during the day, an accolade that is sought by many a bus owner, and there will also be awards for vehicles including a Showstopper. With an array of trade stands including those selling transport memorabilia, a variety of food and drink vendors and showground attractions too, this will be a fun and educational event for all the family. The hobby of bus following has been highlighted in recent years by Norfolk bus enthusiast Reece Collison who has become a social media name after being featured on BBC Radio 1.
Social media sensations The Travel Trolls will be attending the event. An adorable couple – Dan and Mazzy – travel around the UK and beyond – in their ‘lifestyle bus’ or (more accurately) motorhome, vlogging about their everyday lives.
