Closure Week 24 - 29 June 2018 - The Hendon, London site, will be closed from Sunday 24 June to Friday 29 June in preparation of opening three new exhibitions to the public on 30 June.

30th June, the reopening day is also Armed Forces Day: 30 June
Enjoy a family festival day of music, activities, talks, tours and storytelling that not only celebrates Armed Forces Day but also the re-opening of our London site.
We will be celebrating with a star line up of music, featuring the Jive Aces, a six-piece high energy, jive and swing band, the North London Military Wives Choir and the RAF Halton Voluntary Band.
Entertainment and activities will also include: 100 years of uniform – dress the whole family in uniform worn by RAF personnel throughout the last 100 years and take your selfies
Craft Activities – kids (and maybe even adults too!) get inventive with a range of art activities
Talks & Tours – delve into the RAF's history and learn more about the service
Storytelling – our fun and engaging stories will inspire and entertain.
It promises to be a great day for all the family. This event is free but the Museum is expecting large numbers.
