Welcome to the South Devon 1940s Festival website.

The festival, which has previously been named South Devon Railway 1940s Weekend, has been held at Buckfastleigh Station for many years. The show has grown and developed greatly and now boasts a large amount of displays, vehicles, trade stands, entertainment and atmosphere that you won’t find anywhere else!

We work closely with the Devon Area Military Vehicle Trust and the South Devon Railway to ensure that you will experience a fun filled day out that will transport you back to the 40s.
