It's not just one for the machinery diehards. Bring the kids and the grandparents and make a proper day of it.
A giant sandpit loaded with toy diggers. Fair warning, you won't get the kids out of it in a hurry.
Working Clydesdale demonstrations. The original horsepower, doing what it did before the tractors turned up.
The grand parade rolls twice a day, all three days. Old iron and new muscle past the fence, close enough to wave at.
Market and craft stalls to poke through between parades, and food stalls going all weekend so nobody has to cook.
A fly-in of light aircraft parked right beside the show. Wander the fence line and talk to the pilots. Weather willing.
Trucks and tractors parked where you can walk right up, and owners happy to talk them over.
Bring the whole crew. We're giving one lucky subscriber four three-day weekend passes to Central Otago Tracks & Wheels, Easter 2027. Subscribe below to go in the draw and be first to hear when tickets drop.
Everything at a glance, what's on the field, and when and where it all happens.
We're going after the world record for the most Massey Ferguson tractors gathered in one place. Every Massey in the south, every shed find, every pride and joy: we want them all lined up on the one paddock, and yours is invited.
Any Massey Ferguson, any age, any condition that rolls. Every tractor counts.
Over Easter 2027, the tussock country outside Cromwell fills up with machinery. Old tractors that broke in these farms, parked beside the diggers that shift the dirt today. Steam, diesel and dust for three days straight, with a full family day out wrapped around it.
If it runs on tracks or wheels, it's probably here. This is what's locked in so far, with more announcements to come.
The headline act. Beat 285 Massey Fergusons in one place and this paddock goes in the book.
The full parade-ground spectacle rolls every morning and every afternoon, all three days.
Horsepower against the sled. Old girls and new muscle digging in until the wheels spin.
Puffing, popping and ticking over: the engines that powered the farms before the tractors did.
Trucks, heavy machinery and tractors up close. The ones you waved at from the roadside as a kid, parked where you can walk right up and talk them over.
A dedicated family area so the small ones have as big a day out as the big ones.
More attractions announced as they're confirmed.
The gates open. Machines roll in, engines fire up and the first parade hits the ground. The quiet-ish one, if any day counts as quiet.
The big one. Full programme, both parades, the tractor pull and the record attempt build-up at full noise.
Easter Sunday on the paddock. The final parades, last runs of the weekend and a proper send-off for the iron.
Three days, fifty-plus acres and every kind of iron under the big Central Otago sky. Here's a taste of what rolls in.
This district was built on gold diggings and hard graft, so gold is our top tier. Put your name beside a world record attempt and three days of the biggest machinery gathering Central Otago has seen.
Top billing across the event. VIP entry and parking, trade stand included.
Full media package across the campaign plus free event entry.
Your name in the advertising and a place on the team sheet.
An event like this runs on the people who bring it: the machines, the stalls and the crew. Here's how to get on the field.
Tractor, truck, digger or crawler: if it runs on tracks or wheels we want it on display. Massey Ferguson owners, you're the record attempt.
