Families looking for indoor activities to escape the cold and frost during the festive season can do no better than a day trip to the Fleet Air Arm Museum in Somerset. With its four halls all undercover, filled with over 100 historical aircraft, the museum provides a great winter option for visitors young and old to roam freely around the naval aviation exhibits; try the immersive aircraft carrier experience; board the first British-made Concorde; and uncover the role of women in the Royal Navy in the new \u201cPioneers to Professionals\u201d exhibition. Throughout the winter season, the Museum Caf\u00e9 will serve a selection of hot food, beverages and cakes, while aircraft landings and take off can still be watched from the two indoor airfield viewing spots.<\/p>\n
Along with the permanent exhibits, this December visitors can also enjoy a programme of special events:<\/p>\n
\u2022 Christmas Concert Under Concorde<\/a> \u2013 the HMS Heron Royal Navy Volunteer Band will be performing their annual carol concert on 12th and 13th December under Concorde 2, with mulled wine and mince pies on arrival. Entry to the Fleet Air Arm Museum costs from \u00a313.50 per adult and \u00a310.00 per child, with family tickets available from \u00a339.50 for two adults and up to three children.
