Behind the Scenes with the JCB Dancing Diggers

JCB’s Dancing Digger display team are quite simply iconic and a firm favourite at many shows both nationally and internationally.

For as long as I can remember the JCB dancing diggers have been wowing audiences with their well-choreographed displays. They have come along way since those early days of Mr JCB’s vision of a means to demonstrating the strength, power and elegant movement of the Staffordshire built machines, which he initiated back in 1962.

Last year we saw them once again performing at the Royal Cornwall Show which saw the team using a number of regional dealer Holt JCB’s customers machines in the routine which really added a local flavour to the event, much to the assembled crowd’s delight.

For 2025 the JCB team are mixing things up a bit, by bringing in new 4CX Dual Drive machines and a whole new routine with accompanying music for us all to look forward too.
