Stow Maries Great War Aerodrome Events - 2026
As part of our ongoing commitment to our supporters, 2026 sees a bumper crop of events of all kinds. We are dedicated to highlighting that there is 'often something on at Stow'! With a series of 'Added Value' events - where admission fees are the same as regular entry, but you can enjoy our brilliant museum with just a little bit 'extra'. All at not extra cost.
Remember, for these Added Value events, young people under 11 years in age are Admission Free, and your ticket covers both days! Yup - if you come on the Saturday, you can come in on the Sunday, with no extra cost!
VISITORS:
A return to Stow for this popular event. Not sure which historical period you prefer? A fan of the Vikings? Perhaps the Medieval? Maybe you like WW2?
This is the event for you.
With camps scattered across the site illustrating periods of history from across the ages, you'll get a chance to explore all of them. The clang of steel swords, the crash of rifle fire...its all here!
Please note: this is NOT an air event.
For just your standard admission fee, you get to enjoy all our historians have to show and tell, as well as our range of exciting exhibitions and tours.
RE-ENACTORS and LIVING HISTORIANS
We would welcome applications form your group to attend! We are interested in Camps from all periods.
There will be opportunities for arena displays.
We have little or no modern camping space so Living History Camping is a must. WW2 groups welcome, please - but Commonwealth forces only, please!
In the first instance, please contact info@stowmaries.org.uk with information and recent images of your group.
TRADERS
We welcome applications from themed and appropriate traders. Please contact info@stowmaries.org.uk with details of your stand and recent images. You will need to complete this form and attach it to your e-mail. We regret we are unable to accept applications from food vendors.
