Welcome to the Ultimate Soundtrack of Farmyard Party Motorcycle Rally 2025!
With four diverse music stages, there’s something for everyone—whether it’s the raw energy of live rock, the deep grooves of blues, or the hypnotic beats of late-night dance sessions.
Experience the Big Top Main Stage for soaring vocals and acoustic mastery, or immerse yourself in the soul of the Blues Tent. Crusties Marquee offers laid-back vibes into the early hours, while Riders Rights Marquee brings hard-hitting anthems and untamed energy.
And for the ravers—the Eat Your Words Dance Tent is back! Open for a few wild hours late on Friday night, it’s your chance to lose yourself in the music.

Our age old Farmyard Party mantra has always been, and will remain – For Bikers • By Bikers • In Aid of Biking. And whilst we have relaxed our rules slightly of late, the Farmyard Party is still very very much motorcycle focussed. No other motorcycle event of our size is as commited to 2 wheels as we are.
If you cast your eyes across our 2 main camping felds, you will see that a vast majority of our attendees arrive on 2 wheels, but we welcome those on 4 or more that are no longer able to ride for one reason or another.
Motorcycles are an integral part or our entertainment, with our increasingly popular ol’ Peculier Ride In Bike Show on Saturday afternoon, and the recent introduction of our Vintage & Classic Motorcycles Marquee, nothing beats the cacophony of sound when the bikes are started up for your enjoyment.
Whether you arrive on your own, with a friend, an owners club or bike club, we guarantee you will have a weekend you will not forget.
The Ol’ Peculier Custom Show @ the Farmyard Party – Why not show us yours.
This is your chance to showcase your pride and joy and handywork! The show is open to anyone who has ridden their bike to the Farmyard Party. Whether you have a custom-built chopper or a DIY rat bike, we welcome all types and styles, as long as there’s a modification to show off.
Compete for one of our coveted glass trophies, awarded by our panel of judges to the most impressive or most radical — regardless of bike size or type.
If you love your bike, our judges might too. You never know you might even snag the “Best in Show” prize, earning you a magnificent glass trophy and £100 cash.
