Visitor tries on uniform.The Tank Museum is offering visitors a Top Ten half term this February.

There will be 10 activities to take part in for all the family to enjoy. Visitors will be able to see the world’s best collection of tanks, and join in our free Top Ten Tanks Tour. Tank history trails will provide our younger visitors with a fun activity that will teach them about our collections and 20th century history.

In The Trench Experience, a World War One Tommy will explain why the tank was invented, and a World War One tank will be open for visitors to explore. In the Discovery Centre, visitors can learn what life is like for tank crews with our `Cut in Half Centurion` exhibit.

Elsewhere on The Museum floor, tank model makers will be demonstrating their craftsmanship, and there will be opportunities for visitors to join in and make models of their own to take home.

There will also be the chance to experience the thrill of riding in a tracked vehicle first hand, in a military machine that has been converted to hold up to 16 at a time – so the whole family can jump on together! (Extra charge applies)

Finally, visitors will be able to return to The Museum for free for a whole year – as a Tank Museum admission ticket includes an annual pass (Terms & Conditions apply)*

The membership does not entitle the holder to free admission on special event days, such as TANKFEST. The Museum may specify a total of 5 special event days in that 365-day period on which this annual ticket will be exempt. These dates can be found on this website but if you are unsure we recommend that you call ahead of your visit. The event details are updated regularly on our website, so please check the relevant web page or phone The Museum prior to your visit. Tank Action Displays are not counted a special event day. The individual paying the admission fee will be registered as the member, and will be required to be present and to provide proof of identity and a signature for return visits. If you require individual membership for members of your party, you should consider paying separately to enable you to gain return visits independently.
