Llandudno Transport Festival 2025 | Classic Cars, Buses & More in North Wales

Step back in time with me at the Llandudno Transport Festival 2025, held on Bodafon Fields in Llandudno, North Wales. This annual May Bank Holiday event runs alongside the Llandudno Victorian Extravaganza and showcases an incredible variety of classic vehicles: vintage lorries, coaches, buses, motorcycles, cars, bicycles, tractors, and even antique stationary engines. Plus, explore unique stalls—including one with antique sewing machines!

The festival runs alongside the Llandudno Victorian Extravaganza, making it a must-visit weekend for history lovers and transport enthusiasts alike. On the way to the show, I take the shuttle bus and share some fascinating local history, including old photographs of Llandudno Promenade.

Whether you're into classic transport, history, or simply love discovering local festivals in scenic seaside towns, this vlog is for you!
