We want as many people as possible to be able to enjoy a brilliant day out at IWM Duxford. To help people who might find cost or other challenges a barrier to visiting, we have introduced a £3 discounted ticket for visitors in receipt of Universal Credit and other named benefits.

Tickets for named benefit recipients

£3 tickets for IWM Duxford are available to anyone in receipt of eligible named benefits. Unfortunately, we won’t be able to accept reduced price tickets unless you are able to show one of the below supporting documents (per household) as proof of eligibility.

Tickets are available online only and cannot be purchased in person. You can claim up to five discounted tickets per household. 

Children under 5 and carers for disabled visitors receive free entry and do not need to pre-book.

They are not valid for Duxford Air Shows, Flying Days and other special events held at IWM Duxford.
