This weekend always promises to be an amazing day out exploring the equipment, military life and home front culture experienced by many during World War II. Every year we add something bigger and better, with more re-enactment groups and exciting performances. Join us for a Victory-worthy 1940s event featuring... 1940s costume and decoration, Re-enactors and living history groups telling the stories of those who lived, served and fought in WW2, WW2-era vehicles from the museum’s Reserve Vehicle Collection, private collectors and enthusiasts around the country, 'Live' demonstrations of WW2 equipment, including firearms, munitions and more (subject to groups attending and availability of equipment), Wartime musical performances and 1940s dance performances
