Meeting , January 2026We recently held a Scientific Programme strategy day at the Imperial War Museum Duxford conference and events facility and had an excellent experience! The signage was clear and easy to follow, making the venue straightforward to find for all attendees. The Airside Suite was spacious, bright and well suited to our group, providing a comfortable and inspiring environment for discussion.
It was also a real highlight to have the opportunity to explore the museum during the lunch break, which added something special to the day. The food and refreshments were of very good quality throughout, and the team on site were attentive and accommodating — nothing was too much trouble. We would be very happy to return for future events.
