MECHANICAL marvels known as Dancing Diggers will be one of the star attractions at the New Forest Show.
The diggers have wowed the huge crowd when they appeared before and are expected to prove equally popular at this year's event.
Five JCBs, each weighing more than eight tonnes, are among the seven vehicles that will take part in the display.
The 30-minute performance will include dare-devil stunts and formation dancing, plus a huge helping of comedy.
A New Forest Show spokesman said everyone connected with the three-day spectacular was looking forward to the diggers' appearance.
She added: "The power, versatility and accuracy of the machines and their operators will be continually tested to the limit.
"The show always gives the Dancing Diggers an extra challenge during one of their performances. What it'll be this year is still under wraps - but it will be a sight to be seen."
A Dancing Diggers stand will give children a chance to sit on a JCB and learn more about the stunt team.
Spokesman Steve Bond said: "We loved performing at the show before and are delighted to accept the show's invitation to return.
"If people have never seen us in action I can promise them an experience they will never forget."
The show, expected to attract about 100,000 spectators, will be held at New Park, Brockenhurst, on July 25-27.
