Get into the festive spirit with special events at The D-Day Story in Southsea onboard the last surviving Landing Craft Tank

Visitors to the popular museum, run by Portsmouth City Council, will have the opportunity to enjoy a variety of Christmas-themed events that are either free or included in the price of a museum ticket.

On Friday from 5pm to 8pm there will be a festive evening opening with a Christmas choir concert, including after-dark tours of LCT 7074, drinks and nibbles and a pop-up exhibition from local artist Neil Marshall. To secure your place email [email protected], or ring (023) 9288 2555.
