Join us at Fireground this week to discover Greater Manchester's firefighting story.
Fire museum attractions are on show inside the museum including our collection of historic firefighting artefacts from the 18th century to present day, plus home-made refreshments in the new Fireground Café, and souvenirs from our fantastic new gift shop! We have a wide choice ranging from toddler to collector.
Saturday 21 May is 'DK Day' celebrating Rochdale’s original registration plate DK, with a never-before-seen gathering of vehicles bearing that mark.
Pride of place will be DK 1 – the mayoral car of Rochdale Metropolitan Borough, whilst the museum’s own DK-registered fire appliances - (PDK 717, a 1957 Dennis and TDK 999 K and 1971 ERF) will also be on display.
The event is open to all forms of DK-registered transport, including, cars, commercials, buses and coaches, emergency service vehicles, motor cycles, agricultural and steam, provided they have the correct number plate.
Under 4s are free, Children (aged 4-15) and Concessions £5, Adults £7 and Family (4 people) £20.
