Win a Ride in a Tank with Our Model Show Competition!

Calling all modellers! Enter the South West Model Show competition now for a chance to win exclusive prizes, including a ride in a tank and tickets to TANKFEST 2025 – the world’s biggest live display of historic tanks and armoured vehicles.

The South West’s biggest model show is back at The Tank Museum on 8 & 9 February. The full weekend programme is now available online and includes details of the exciting competition for all kinds of models, from planes and boats to sci-fi. And of course, tanks!

Model makers of all ages are encouraged to take part, including a Junior Category (ages 11-17), and a Kids Category for under 10s. You only have until midnight on Wednesday 5 February 2025 to submit your entry, but your model doesn’t have to be specially made for the competition.

Events Co-ordinator, Milda Siauciulyte said: “This is the second year we have run the model competition, and we’ve been so impressed with the high calibre of model making across all age groups and themes. We’re delighted to be able to offer some unique experiences as prizes.”

As well as the competition, the South West Model Show features traders, exhibitors, demonstrations, and displays, as well as interactive fun like battling robots and building your own models. Visitors will also be able to explore The Tank Museum’s powerful, interactive exhibitions.

The competition costs £3 to enter, plus your entry ticket to the Museum.  Judging will take place at the South West Model Show on 9 February 2025.
