Step back in time to 1940, in the air and on the ground, and even in the clothes you wear!
Journey with us to the summer of 1940 at the Duxford Battle of Britain Air Show. Set within the historic grounds and airfield of IWM Duxford, this action-packed weekend invites you on a weekend of discovery through its sights and sounds as Spitfires, Hurricanes and more soar overhead.
Second World War fighters scramble from historic IWM Duxford just like they did in the summer of 1940.
Showcasing incredible aircraft and feats of engineering, awe-inspiring flying formations and unique aircraft, Duxford Battle of Britain Air Show is a spectacle not to be missed.
Our 2025 event welcomed some of the only airworthy examples of historic aircraft, such as the B-17 and the Avro Anson, warbirds from around the world, and the famous Duxford ‘Big Wing’ formation.
