We'll be joined by Second World War living history displays from Ham & Jam and Winstan plus a range of fun family activities, including making Horsa Gliders and object handling sessions.
We'll also be running our 'Behind the Scenes' archive tours, offering an opportunity to access all areas of the museum and see a few of the thousands of objects tucked away in our archives.

You'll also be able to grab a bite to eat from the Vintage Street Food Van.
