Events Calendar 2012

Life at Crich Tramway Village is rich and varied, illustrated by the wide range of events and special occasions we hold throughout the year. Our recreations of the 1940's and Edwardian Era all add their own unique atmosphere to Crich Tramway Village and the many car rallies are very popular among classic vehicle owners. A recent addition to the calendar are the family themed events such as Beside the Seaside and Alice in Woodland.
