We'll Meet Again, 1940s Vintage and Victory Weekend at the Farm

Step back in time and celebrate all that was great from the 1940s & 50s!

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

Keep calm and carry on down to the Farm to meet the Home Guard and Churchill himself! Make do and mend with the Land Army girls, and help with their daily chores, potato riddling, butter making and cleaning harness. Learn more about Tatton’s vitally important role in Britain's wartime years. It was here that the canopies of British parachute troops opened for the first time, heralding the birth of Britain's Airborne forces.

With some fantastic music to cater for all ages, listen to our singers, join in with the Lindy Hop lessons and get ready to dance the day away. Why not come in your best 1940s & 50s outfits, and help make it a day never to be forgotten.

Don't miss the tractor and trailer rides to the memorial while you're here!

Refreshments and vintage stalls also available.

Standard farm and parkland entry charges apply to all including National Trust members. Book online for a 10% discount.
