Where summer takes off!

From 18 July to 6 September

This summer (18 July-6 September) kids go free* at Aerospace Bristol.

Enjoy giant outdoor lawn games, an interactive marble run and the chance to see the Bristol Freighter as it rolls outside to soak up the sunshine. Then head into our museum hangars to cool off while exploring 100 years of aviation history, including the iconic Concorde. 

With a different featured activity every day and family favourites throughout the museum, you’re guaranteed a supersonic day out, where imagination takes off.
