We are very pleased to announce that we will be exhibiting the story of the Vickers machine gun in the aptly-named 'Vickers Room' in the The Pavilion Bisley at the home of UK shooting, Bisley Camp, Surrey, GU24 0PB.
Friday 2 October to Monday 5 October 2026.
This will be a full museum-quality display of key items from our collection and the first time they have had an outing, in full, from our limited collection storage.
As well as understanding the gun itself, we will be able to show how it was used, the stories of the people who used it, how they were trained, how it changed over time and what other roles it had.
This will be a FREE entry event but there will be opportunities for guided tours and talks over the course of the weekend for individuals and groups and these may be charged for. We will of course appreciate any donations before, during and after the event as this will enhance what we can offer (including corporate opportunities).
With the extra facilities that we have access to at Bisley, for once we will be able to take all of those people that ask to come and visit the limited space and access we have currently.
We may also be able to offer previews and special tours for our Patrons as well so head to www.patreon.com/vickersmg to get more details on those as they develop.
