Ferguson Tractor Day

Join us at the Ulster Folk Museum on 28 June to celebrate the heritage of the Ferguson Tractor.

With ploughing and cultivating demonstrations using vintage Ferguson tractors. 

Watch a ‘concours d'elegance’, featuring a convoy of prized and rare Ferguson Tractors as they make their way throughout the Folk Museum to the sounds of the Harry Ferguson pipe band. There'll also be traditional music, craft demonstrations and more!

Henry George “Harry” Ferguson was a pioneer in engineering. He was born locally in County Down and is celebrated as a great innovator, having played a major role in the mechanical implementation of farming and agriculture on an international scale.
