Truckfest Lincoln 2025

The May Bank Holiday Weekend saw a full-capacity turnout for the headline Truckfest Lincoln 2025 event, taking place in Lincoln for the second year. The size of Truckfest Lincoln is hard to convey without experiencing it in person. It is enormous.

Trucks from all over the country descended en masse to the Lincolnshire Showground for the second year and to the delight of all concerned, the recent spell of good weather meant the grass areas were rock solid. The traffic management issues of last year's inaugural event had been dealt with as well, and show-goers were treated to trucks of all ages, shapes and sizes, sprawled across the vast site. Some thought it would be hard to match up to the old Peterborough event, which was the previous headline Truckfest, but it looks like Lincoln is set to become just as iconic.

It's almost like anyone who is anyone is here, and the event is undoubtedly of importance to those looking to get some deals and business done as much as it is for friends to catch up with each other - often for the first time in months, or perhaps even since the previous year. The size of the event and the crowds which descend upon it make Truckfest the sort of show that as a lorry driver, it should be on your career 'to do' list at least once. We had a great time and enjoyed speaking to many drivers.

You'd probably need a full three days to get round all of it comprehensively, but here's a selection of trucks which we liked - and you'll likely be seeing many of them featured in forthcoming issues!
