- Carters Steam Fair (no apostrophe is used in the name) was a travelling vintage fair. Founded in 1977 by John Carter (1942–2000), this family business is now managed by the second generation of Carters. Carters operate and maintain a large collection of vintage rides and sidestalls, ranging in date from the 1870s to the 1960s, and every season they are travelled with vintage heavy lorries and traditional showmen's living wagons. The fair provides an opportunity to enjoy historic equipment and artwork. Their operating base and restoration workshops are immediately adjacent to White Waltham Airfield, near Maidenhead, in Berkshire. Carters has announced in October 2022 that they are ending the ‘travelling steam-fair’ and that their final tour will end at Prospect Park, Reading on 30 October 2022. (en)
