IWM Duxford Activities and Team Building

Activities and Team-Building

Our experienced partners offer a range of exciting and unusual activities to enhance your corporate event. As well as simply enjoying all that the museum has to offer, choose from a range of indoor and outdoor activities tailored to your requirements.

Outdoor Activities

• Tank rides: experience the thrill of a tank ride in a genuine 432 armoured personnel carrier around our very own tank arena.
• Pleasure flights and flying experiences: take to the skies in a Tiger Moth or Dragon Rapide. Ideal for team-building or as an extra-special treat, flying experiences in a range of vintage aircraft can be booked with on-site partner, Classic Wings. Classic Wings can also arrange hovercraft rides, crazy driving and many other spine-tingling activities. For more information contact Terri Watson or Chris Schofield on 01255 473 832 or visit the Classic Wings website.

Indoor Activities

• Talks, workshops and children’s  activities: bespoke activities delivered by our Department for Learning. Activities can be tailored for any age group.
• Private guided museum tours: helping to bring our collections to life, our official tour operator, David Lee, is a respected aviation historian. To book, please call David on 01440 707 610 or email davidwlee@aviationhistorian.co.uk.
• IWM Duxford treasure hunts: exploring our collections and developing  various skills such as observation, negotiation, logical and deductive reasoning, treasure hunts are a great team-building activity. These can be organised within one exhibition or across the whole museum.
• IWM Duxford flight simulator: experience the rush of a dogfight over the white cliffs of Dover. Filmed in real-time with IWM Duxford-based Spitfires and a Messerschmitt Bf109, this motion simulator moves from the perspective of the Bf109 as it makes a lightening raid on the British coastline. The simulator can be booked as part of a package from the Commercial team or direct from Active Rides on 01708 855 242 or sales@activerides.com.
