Wentworth Shire Council is proud to announce the official details for the Wentworth Flood Rally (70 Years On). From Friday 5 June to Sunday 7 June 2026, we invite the community and visitors to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the historic 1956 Murray–Darling Flood.

This event is a tribute to the “Little Grey Fergie” (Ferguson TEA20) tractors and the incredible community spirit that saved our township.

Weekend Program Highlights:

• Friday, 5 June: Roll in Tractor Trek. The journey begins as participants trek from Red Cliffs to Wentworth.

• Saturday, 6 June: 70km Tractor Trek. A convoy of vintage machinery will travel through the region, marking the areas where floodwaters once threatened the district.

• Sunday, 7 June: Australian Record Attempt & Street Parade. We are aiming to break the Australian record for the largest assembly of Ferguson TEA20 tractors! The day concludes with a street parade, historic displays, and markets at the Wharf Precinct.

Get Involved:

• Tractor Owners: Calling all “Little Grey Fergies” and vintage vehicles (pre-1956)! Help us make history. Email tractor@wentworth.nsw.gov.au to register.

• Stallholders: Expressions of Interest are open for food vendors and local producers. Email events@wentworth.nsw.gov.au by 1 May 2026.

• Visitors: Explore the new Fibre Optic Symphonic Orchestra (FOSO) and book your accommodation early at experiencewentworth.com.au.

“The Wentworth Flood Rally is more than tractors – it is a living monument to the Wentworth community and Australian ingenuity.” – Mayor Daniel Linklater
