Bentham Auction Mart Charity Christmas Lights Tractor Run

Around 100 tractors decorated with elaborate lighting displays leave Bentham Auction Mart on the evening of Friday 11 December 2026 to tour the surrounding villages, alongside a farmers' carol concert and schoolchildren's lantern procession. The run anchors the mart's Christmas in the Mart festive weekend, which continues on the Saturday with a festive market of 60+ stalls and a children's pedal tractor run, and raised funds in 2025 for the Farming Community Network, North West Air Ambulance and St John's Hospice.
