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.

Fireground is open to visitors on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays, 10am - 4pm.

This Saturday is 'DK Day' celebrating Rochdale’s original registration plate DK, with a never-before-seen gathering of vehicles bearing that mark.

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.
