Truckers bring big rigs to the show … and the fun follows including the attendance of TikTok sensation Hiab Princess
After two years away at Jimmy’s Farm, the Stonham Truck Show will be returning to Stonham Barns Park – one of Suffolk’s premier leisure, retail and holiday venues – for 2025.
The Stonham Truck Show 2025 on 24 and 25 May is organised with the sole purpose of raising money for the East Anglian Air Ambulance charity which offers an outstanding service to those in need across the region. All the proceeds from the show go directly to the charity.
The last show raised £8,500 for the charity which brings the total amount raised by the show for the East Anglian Air Ambulance to £31,000 – and the fund raising continues.
Says Brian Holder, ‘This year will be bigger and better than any previous as we push to grow the truck show each year in scale and scope for the benefit of the EAAA who help the people who need it the most with such professionalism and empathy.’
‘This is why we have made it our mission to help in every way we can. The show was a runaway success in 2024 – despite the unfortunate weather – and it is our vision to make it an even more entertaining and fun day out for the whole family this year with even more inclusivity than ever. It really is a show for everyone.’
‘The show will be adding more displays over the weekend for 2025 back at Stonham Barns Park with even more trade stands and live music to accompany the light show in the evening. You have to come to a show to find out what it’s all about and why people come back year after year.’
‘We would like to say thank you to Stonham Barns Park for helping us to set the wheels in motion for a show with added family appeal. Also we would like to say a massive thank you to all the drivers and haulage companies that participate in the show, giving up their time, trucks and fuel to let us make this show what it is which is a great day out for all the family.’
Among the attractions for this year will be the attendance of social media influencer Sam Mason, the truck driver and TikTok sensation from Wigan – also known as Hiab Princess – who has a huge following from the trucking community both nationally and internationally. She has recently been featured on the TV show Trucking Heavy on Channel 5. Pioneering female truck driving, Sam will be meeting visitors to the show and signing autographs.
Says Terri Forward of Stonham Barns Park, ‘We are delighted to have the Stonham Truck Show back at Stonham Barns Park where it began. It’s grown into a mega show for the public to see a diverse range of some of the top manufacturers most impressive range of modern and classic trucks and trailers. The graphics and the light show make for a great show spectacle and the stories from the truck drivers are always many and varied.’
‘This will be a memorable show in every way and the proceeds all go to the EAAA and so we hope it will be supported as always by the whole community.’

Stonham Barns Park has been serving the community of Suffolk since it first opened in 1987 and is still as much a family destination as it was when it first opened, and it is now becoming a more prominent part of Suffolk tourism which is growing exponentially year on year.
