Over the weekend of 19-20th April the Welsh Transport Heritage Museum with assistance from the South Wales Land Rover Club are organising a Land Rover Festival as part of the Welsh Heartlands Autofest being staged in the Country Park alongside the Civic Centre in Pontllanfraith near Blackwood, Caerphilly.
There will be a display area and a large action area and to celebrate the 60th Anniversary of the Land Rover a road run is planned from its birthplace in Anglesey down through Wales to Blackwood. This weekend is as near as you can get to the first appearance of the Land Rover 60 years ago in Amsterdam.
We are looking for ideas , suggestions and of course entries to help make this a great weekend event.
Proceeds from the festival will be dedicated once again to the Wales Air Ambulance charity which runs three life saving helecopters covering the whole of Wales 24-7.
