Military vehicle displays, tank rides and children's activities are just some of the attractions at this annual event at the Royal Gunpowder Mills. The weekend will also host a number of living history re-enactment groups and there will be "live" firing demonstrations of artillery and small arms.
There will be plenty of stalls selling old and new uniforms, memorabilia and artefacts covering multi periods.
Try your hand at a variety of weapons at the Airsoft booth or see the real thing in the armoury where a private collection of over 200 personal weapons from the matchlock to the Kalashnikov are on display and explained to you by expert curators. Learn how to operate four key weapons and earn your certificate!
The entry price includes admission to the Royal Gunpowder Mills and its award-winning exhibition on the history and manufacture of gunpowder, cordite and other explosives from the days of Guy Fawkes to rockets of the 1970's. The site is also an important conservation area and guided tours are available. You can find full details of the venue location at
