Woolton Hill Christmas Tractor Run

📅 Sat 12 Dec 2026📍 Woolton Hill (convoy departs about 4.30pm), Hampshire

An illuminated evening tractor convoy starting in Woolton Hill at about 4.30pm on Saturday 12 December 2026, heading through Highclere, Burghclere and Newtown and into Newbury town centre along Northbrook Street before returning via Enborne Row. Thousands lined the streets in 2025, when the run and its linked Harwood Rise event raised £3,000 for the Children's Ward and Charlie's Day Unit at Basingstoke and North Hampshire Hospital. The 2026 route includes a designated quiet zone, with no horns between the Penwood Nursery junction and the A34 bridge into Burghclere for noise-sensitive spectators.
