With live tank displays, thrilling pyrotechnics, and the opportunity to get in the arena and participate in a battle demonstration, The Tank Museum offers an unforgettable day out for the whole family this summer holiday, 21 July – 2 September 2025.
The Tank Museum, which not only boasts impressive interactive exhibitions telling the story of the tank and the crews that served in them, but outside in the arena you can see real tanks in action!
Visitors can experience armoured vehicles roar around the arena, Monday to Thursday, at 1-1.30pm during the summer holidays (until 28 August), with the opportunity to meet the crew and get close to the vehicles from the display afterwards.
Watching not enough? Book a ride in a real tracked vehicle – a Cold War M548 troop carrier, which will be running on biofuel!
On top of this, there will be family-friendly tours, trails and STEM-themed activities to inspire inquisitive young minds. Plus, there’s a tank-themed outdoor playpark and indoor soft play for mini-tank enthusiasts to explore.
Ellie Johnston, Communications & Content Co-ordinator, said:
“There is so much for the whole family to see and do at The Tank Museum this summer, you’ll probably need more than a day to explore everything…
… and with a free annual pass included with every full price ticket purchased, you can come back as many times as you like!”
