Hundreds of tractors will parade around Harrogate, Knaresborough and Pateley Bridge tomorrow for the annual Knaresborough Tractor Run.

The spectacle, watched each year by thousands of people, gets underway at the Great Yorkshire Showground at 9am tomorrow (Sunday, March 17).

Some 350 tractors will embark on a 25-mile route lined with spectators to raise money for Yorkshire Air Ambulance. The event has raised more than £100,000 for the charity since it was first held over a decade ago.

The parade stops for a hog roast lunch in Pateley Bridge before winding its way back to Knaresborough.

The estimated morning times are:

9am leave Great Yorkshire Showground in Harrogate

9am-9.15am Knaresborough

10am-10.15am Burton Leonard

10.30am Bishop Monkton

10.45am Markington

11.15am Sawley

11.30am Grantley

Noon Pateley Bridge

A £25,000 online fundraising target has been set. Tractor drivers pay £20 to enter (£25 on the day) and passengers are charged £10. Spectators are encouraged to make donations when the vehicles pass or give online here.

Last year’s event took the total amount raised for the Yorkshire Air Ambulance to £113,341, earning the Knaresborough Tractor Run logo a place on the charity’s new helicopters.
