One of the biggest crowd-pullers at GroundsFest is back for 2026, and it's set to be louder, bigger and more action-packed than ever before.
Machinery Nation LIVE is back on 16 and 17 September at Stoneleigh Park with an expanded programme of demonstrations, challenges and interactive experiences that promise to be one of the biggest attractions at the show.
Throughout both days, visitors can experience an action-packed schedule featuring live machinery demonstrations, thrilling chainsaw relays involving some of the world's leading brands, tractor and loader challenges, and an exciting ATV and UTV course. It's the perfect opportunity to see the latest machinery performing in real working conditions while enjoying the energetic, entertaining presentation style that Machinery Nation has become renowned for.
Visitors will also have the chance to get up close to the latest equipment, speak to industry experts, compare machines side by side and even pick up exclusive giveaways from some of their favourite brands.
Christopher Bassett, Event Director of GroundsFest, said:
"Machinery Nation LIVE has been a huge success at GroundsFest over the past couple of years. It creates an incredible atmosphere and attracts huge crowds, combining genuine product demonstrations with entertainment that keeps visitors coming back.
"We're delighted to welcome the team back for 2026. They've got even more planned this year, making it bigger, more exciting and packed with even more action. It's another fantastic reason for visitors to register for GroundsFest."
Machinery Nation's engaging presenters will once again bring every demonstration to life, offering expert insight, honest opinions and plenty of entertainment as they put a wide range of machinery through its paces.
The return of Machinery Nation LIVE perfectly complements GroundsFest's unique hands-on format, giving visitors the opportunity to not only watch equipment in action but also test machinery for themselves across the show's extensive outdoor demonstration areas.
Alongside Machinery Nation LIVE, GroundsFest 2026 will feature more than 500 leading brands, free CPD-accredited education, the popular Lawn Mower Racing sponsored by Kramp UK, the live music festival, and a host of other interactive attractions.
With free entry, free parking and complimentary coach transfers from Leamington Spa railway station, GroundsFest continues to offer an unrivalled experience for professionals and volunteers working across the grounds management, landscaping, local authority, sports turf and amenity sectors.
