Sublimity Harvest Festival
The Sublimity Harvest Festival began in 1973 as a friendly competition among local farmers to see whose tractor could pull the farthest. Back then, a “sled” was hooked to the back of the tractor, and as the tractor moved down the track, spectators would jump on and add weight until the tractor couldn’t pull any further. The distance was measured with a hand-held tape.
Fast forward over 50 years, and this beloved tradition has grown into a three-day event that attracts competitors and spectators from all over the Western United States! The festival now features not just tractor pulls, but also thrilling truck pulls, exciting ATV pulls, and awe-inspiring MONSTER trucks!
The Sublimity Harvest Festival began in 1973 with the first tractor pull. It started out as a competition between local farmers, to see whose tractor could pull the most dead weight the furthest. This friendly competition that began on a Sunday afternoon, in an open field years ago, has now become the Grand Finale of each year.
