About

Our Visit the Vulcan Day at London Southend Airport is a great opportunity for everyone to see former Royal Air Force bomber Avro Vulcan XL426 up close at a very affordable price.

With lots to see and no admission fee for under-16s, it is an ideal family day out. You will also have the chance to sit inside the Vulcan's cockpit.

You can walk around and underneath the Vulcan’s huge delta wings and see a rare example of a WE177B nuclear bomb as well as two 1,000 lb High Explosive bombs, the type of bomb the Vulcan dropped on Port Stanley airfield during the 1982 Falklands Conflict.

As well as the Vulcan, there will be much more to keep the whole family entertained. Please check the Vulcan Restoration website for details of exhibits and special displays.

Refreshments are on sale from a variety of stalls so no one goes hungry or thirsty. Our souvenir stand will be selling a selection of Vulcan souvenirs, including models, badges, patches, postcards, books, and much more.
