The 1940s Relived at the Brooklands Museum - 16th May

[Sam Tyler]

Brooklands wouldn't be Brooklands without some historic events and coming up on the 16th May is their 1940s Relived day.

Join us at Brooklands Museum as we turn back the clock to the decade of fashion, commemoration, style and celebration at our annual 1940s Relived event!
This is a chance to put your hair up, grab your best period outfit and lace up the dance shoes.

For full details of the event take a look at the Brooklands Museum site here: The 1940s Relived

Stock up on vintage gear at our extensive vintage market, featuring some of the best vintage sellers around, providing everything from hats, suits and shoes to accessories, books and original memorabilia.

Around the site you will find all the usual Museum exhibits, but you will never know what is around the next corner - you may find the Home Guard on parade or manning the Pill Box, an RAF Fighter Command Control Centre or US airborne troops carrying out demonstrations of infantry weapons and fire power.

New for this year is the recreation of the 1948 London Motor Show

There'll be singing and dancing there, and if you fancy getting togged up as Captain Mainwaring then this should be right up your street.

I'll be at the Slot Festival at Gaydon so will miss it otherwise I'd have been along to see the cars.

Sounds like a great event Sam.

I'm busy that weekend myself so can't be there.

Shame you can't make it yourself, but I understand that you visited the original 1948 motor show anyway

I thought it was too good to last!

Sounds great, but I can't make it this weekend either.
I visited Hendon museum about three months ago, that was really good too.
