To mark the 80th anniversary of VE Day, we are honoured to offer our members a unique, once-in-a-lifetime, private 'behind-the-glass' tour of the Churchill War Rooms. This expert-led experience will take you into areas not normally accessible to the public.

Immerse yourself in the War Cabinet Room, which was used by Churchill, his War Cabinet, and the Chiefs of Staff during the Blitz.

See the scratch marks still clearly visible on Churchill’s chair, made while he deliberated decisions which would alter the course of history – one of the many details you can only see with exclusive private access. 

What better way to mark the 80th anniversary of VE Day than standing at the very desk from which Churchill delivered four of his most famous speeches, and discovering his personal objects, including one of his original cigars up close? 

After the tour, we will head over for a drink at the famous Red Lion pub on Parliament Street (not included in the ticket price). 

Please be advised that this is a unique, small-group experience and as such, tickets are extremely limited. Tickets are available on a first-come, first-served basis, so please book now to avoid disappointment.
