Hundreds come steaming into Pavilion's garden railway festival

Hundreds of enthusiasts from all parts of the UK came steaming into one of the UK's biggest garden railway festivals which returned to Llangollen Pavilion today (Saturday).

They were able to enjoy some of the finest large-scale model railway layouts in the country along with displays by more than 50 leading retailers and traders packing into the spacious venue. 

Since being launched by Llangollen-based enthusiast Keith Potts in 2021 the event has grown rapidly to become one of the premier events in the garden railway calendar, attracting visitors from Britain and beyond.

 

A major new attraction for 2026 is a partnership with the Llangollen and Corwen Railway, which sees visitors being encouraged to enjoy both attractions during the weekend. As part of the collaboration, festival-goers will receive £3 off travel on the heritage railway on June 6 and 7, while a number of joint activities are planned.

 

Keith Potts said: "Our Garden Railway Festival continues to grow in popularity, and we're having a very busy day so far with the usual high level of interest in all our exhibits."


The festival will be open until 4.30pm today. Tickets are £14, with accompanied children admitted free of charge.
