The Tank Museum in Dorset, is heading to London for one night only in a brand-new event on the London stage.

For the first time, The Tank Museum will be joined by acclaimed historians and broadcasters Al Murray and James Holland on a London stage exploring the history - and future - of the tank.

Taking to the Royal Geographical Society’s Ondaatje Theatre on 28 November 2026, Al Murray, James Holland, and Tank Museum experts will examine the role of the tank across some of the most significant conflicts of the last century, including the First World War, the Second World War, and the Cold War.

In addition to covering the last century’s significant armoured conflicts, speakers will look to the future and consider the changing nature of warfare and whether the tank will continue to dominate tomorrow's battlefields.

The event will begin at 7.30pm. Standard admission tickets are £35, and Friends of The Tank Museum save 20% on tickets. Limited tickets available, book now HERE
