Bovington: Tank museum summer events until Mon 31st Aug
The Tank Museum in Bovington is bringing history to life this summer holiday with spectacular tanks in action displays, vehicle rides, family activities and more.
Visitors will be able to watch live tank battles with lifelike explosions and expert commentary – or even take part in the display themselves as volunteer infantry.
People can learn more about how soldiers were transported to the battlefield, by riding in a real M548 Cold War Troop Carrier.
Beyond the arena, there will be game-themed tours, trails, and interactive exhibitions to enjoy, including the chance to try the Museum’s vintage games at the Village Fete inside The Tank Museum’s Education Room.
With a free annual pass included with every ticket purchased, visitors can come back as many times as you like. Book online and save 20%. Visit The Tank Museum’s website to find out more: https://tankmuseum.org/events/summer-holiday
LONDON: Notting Hill Carnival 29th, 30th 31st August 2026
What is Notting Hill Carnival?
Notting Hill Carnival is a huge, free street celebration centred around the Caribbean community. It's Europe's biggest street festival, and the world's second largest carnival (Rio takes first place) — bringing bangin' beats, lashings of street food (jerk chicken is a staple), razzle-dazzle costumes and utterly fabulous parade processions.
It's been taking place since 1966 — though a similar event took place before that, organised by Claudia Jones in response to race riots and hostility faced by the Windrush Generation in London. These days it boasts more Mas bands and sound systems than ever.
