Before the main flying display, there are plenty of other attractions to fill your day! Below is a list of the few that have been confirmed.
Shuttleworth Collection - View our amazing collection of aircraft, vintage vehicles and several heritage exhibits in our hangars. Most of the Collection is in flying/working condition, so some of the exhibits may be flying or exhibited outside during the event.
Shuttleworth House - Explore the glorious Victorian residence of the Shuttleworth family. Take a tour around a selection of the rooms which are full of original period detail, including a Victorian Grand Piano, enormous chandeliers, gold-leafed ceilings and panelled walls.
To get to the House, you can choose to walk from the Swiss Garden via the Shrubbery Walk, or alternatively hop on board the Vintage Bus which stops in front of the hangars.
Shuttleworth Swiss Garden - The Shuttleworth Swiss Garden is a romantic treasure, situated next to the hangars and Shuttleworth House, and boasts 9 acres of landscaped gardens. Wander among splendid shrubs and rare trees, around tiny islands and ponds and over intricate ironwork bridges. Don't forget to keep an eye out for our two resident peacocks!
Flightline Tours - Get up close and personal with the aircraft on a Flightline Tour for just £10 per person, with a knowledgeable guide on hand to talk about the aircraft and answer your questions.
Tours are in small groups of four people and last for approx. 45 minutes.
Vintage Bus Rides - Enjoy a ride aboard one of our 1920's Vintage Buses - the only surviving Charabus or the glamorous White Rose!
Children's Playground - Looking for an activity to entertain the young ones? Our large play area with climbing frames, slides and swings is suitable for children up to 12 years old.
Shuttleworth Discovery Zones - Check out our 'Discovery Zones' located in and around the hangars. You'll find a wealth of activities to keep the kids entertained - and maybe even the adults!
