The Aviation Day (inc. Fixed-Wing Fly-In) takes place on Sunday, September 13, 2026, at the historic Brooklands Museum in Weybridge, Surrey—widely celebrated as the cradle of British aviation and motoring innovation. The single-day event highlights the site's rich aeronautical heritage, where iconic aircraft such as the Sopwith Camel, Hawker Hurricane, Vickers Wellington, and BAC/Aerospatiale Concorde were developed, built, or flown. Central to the day is a dedicated fly-in featuring visiting fixed-wing aircraft, which land on the airfield strip adjacent to the museum site to join static displays alongside Brooklands' own world-class collection.
Throughout the event, visitors can experience live aircraft engine runs, ground-level interactive demonstrations, aviation trade stalls, and guided tours around the museum's extensive displays. Specially tailored for flying enthusiasts, aviation historians, and families alike, the day offers rare up-close access to iconic civilian and military airframes. Admission also includes access to the broader museum site, including the historic Paddock, the remnants of the 1907 banked motor racing circuit, and the adjacent London Bus Museum, making it a comprehensive celebration of British transport history.
