Crank Up Heritage and Community Festival

This is a great family outing in the beautiful Warburton Valley. Learn about heritage trades and vintage machines, browse through the Museum collections, and enjoy food and drinks while listening to some live music.

Crank Up Heritage and Community Festival - organised since 1978 - takes place at the Upper Yarra Museum in Yarra Junction. This event showcases vintage machinery (moving and stationary) and vintage cars; live blacksmithing and heritage trades demonstrations; an exciting wood chop competition and working draught horses; live music and fun kids' activities as well as market and food stalls.

Vintage car show takes place on Saturday and wood chop competition on Sunday.
