Quiet Afternoon at the Fleet Air Arm Museum
19 April @ 2:00 pm – 4:30 pm
The perfect low-sensory environment for a calmer, quieter museum experience.
During our quiet afternoon sessions, sounds, lights and interactive elements will be lowered or turned-off to create a low-sensory environment.
These sessions are intended to support a range of visitors of all ages, including neurodiverse individuals, people with social, emotional, or mental health needs, those living with dementia, and anyone who may benefit from or simply enjoy a quieter, more relaxed environment.
Access during this event will require a valid museum ticket.
Sunday 19 April 2026, 2pm to 4.30pm
