10am to 4pm
On Remembrance Sunday, we offer free admission to the museum for all and we very much hope that people will take the opportunity to visit us as we remember members of the Armed Forces who gave their lives in active service.
At 11am, a two-minute silence will be observed across the museum, starting and finishing with a museum-wide whistle blast.
At 12.30pm, we will be holding a traditional service of Remembrance in the Conservation Hall in AirSpace, with standard bearers from the Royal British Legion, Airborne Forces and local ATC cadets. IWM Duxford’s partner organisations will lay wreaths in honour of the fallen.
We’ll be giving families the opportunity to learn about remembrance together with hands-on activities throughout the museum. Visitors can make poppies and either wear them with pride or attach them to large pictorial friezes. You can also add your own personal messages of remembrance and attach them to our friezes.
There will also be the opportunity to meet veterans and chat to them about their wartime experiences.
Suitable for: All ages
