About this Event

Join us for a day designed for our valued Supporters community!

Supporters’ Day 2026 offers a full schedule of project updates, briefs from our staff, and most importantly...free lunch!

Here’s what you can look forward to:

  • Insights into our ongoing restoration projects and behind-the-scenes updates.
  • A buffet lunch.
  • The chance to view new Museum spaces and tour new galleries.
  • Refreshments throughout the day.
  • Opportunities to connect with fellow Supporters and the TNMOC team.

For those unable to attend in person, we will be livestreaming key talks to offer a virtual participation option. We’ll also record key segments of the event to ensure you can catch up on any sessions you miss after the event.


Practical Information:

A full schedule for the day is available below.

Although this event is designed with Supporters of The National Museum of Computing in mind, members of the general public may attend, either virtually on in-person. These tickets will incur a fee.

Should you wish to upgrade to a Supporters Club membership, the cost of your ticket will be redeemable against the price of the membership.
