Dingles Fairground Museum
With a National Art Pass you get
Ride vintage carousels & dodgems at Dingles Fairground Museum which captures the bygone age of the traditional fairground with working exhibits and stunning artwork.
All the fun of the fair is here: dodgems, ghost trains, chariot racers, gallopers and the rodeo switchback, though young children might prefer the gentler option of the roundabout or Happy Caterpillar. There is also a 1950s Bingo stall and an array of classic fairground games such as Beat the Clock, Plate Smasher, Hook a Duck or the Coconut shy.
