The 60th National Steam Rally in Stradbally was an unforgettable celebration of history, heritage, and community spirit. Over two incredible days, the event brought together enthusiasts, families, and friends to marvel at steam engines, vintage displays, live music, demonstrations, and so much more.

We want to express our heartfelt thanks to everyone who made this milestone rally such a success: the exhibitors who shared their remarkable machines and talents, the traders who added variety and charm, the performers who entertained us, and the countless volunteers who worked tirelessly behind the scenes.

Special thanks go to Anna May McHugh for officially opening the event, to Cliona Hagan, and Susan McCann for their spectacular performances, and to everyone who attended, rain or shine, to celebrate with us. You are the heart and soul of this event, and your support ensures the preservation of our rich steam heritage for future generations.
