The truth may never be known about the incidents that took place in Rendlesham Forest in December 1980. They have since begun to drift into the mists of folklore, and the mythological fog of war, and have been described as 'Britain's Roswell'.

But something truly unusual did happen. A large number of United States Air Force personnel from the nearby twin bases at RAF Woodbridge and RAF Bentwaters witnessed phenomena that none of them have ever been able to explain. The official memo spoke of ‘unexplained lights’ – UFOs being too emotive a term – but, as later emerged, there was much more to it than that.

Master storytellers Minimum Labyrinth have created an experience that takes you on a trip from London to the silent beauty of the Suffolk woods, from the present day to the height of the Cold War, from the everyday to the uncanny. Whether you want to believe, or you are resolutely sceptical, within the remarkable events we find a story of our own fears and compulsions.

Your guided walk around Rendlesham Forest is led by Robert Kingham, presenter of Pagan London.

• The audio narrative and guided tour draw information from previously published accounts of the events surrounding the Rendlesham Forest incident.
• Minimum Labyrinth aim to present a balanced view of the available evidence to an interested but non-specialist audience, enriched by a political and cultural perspective of the time.
• We must stress to specialist ufologists that no previously unseen testimonies or evidence will be presented.

In advance of the event, we will ask you for your lunch orders. This year we will be at Ego at The Deben Seal, and you can choose anything from its A La Carte, Prix Fixe or Lunch menus.
