Nestled just on the border between the city of Cambridge and the rolling Cambridgeshire countryside lies the historic airfield of IWM, Duxford. Steeped in rich aviation history from the first flights of the iconic Spitfire to stories of Cold War glory, perhaps there is none such a unique venue as Duxford airfield. Host your wedding within the seminal Concorde and dance beneath its wings, or enjoy your drink and canape reception or dinner in our Airside Suite with its balcony overlooking our impressive live runway. We have a wedding package suitable for all couples, which includes a dedicated wedding planner, support and production. Let us put the wind beneath your wings and help your wedding take to the skies!

IWM Duxford cordially invites you to celebrate your wedding reception here at Europe's largest air museum. With the exclusive hire of either our award-winning Airspace Hangar or our American Air Museum for large-scale events to smaller intimate weddings in our premium Airside Suite, which boasts floor-to-ceiling windows and a private balcony overlooking our iconic runway, we have a wedding option to suit all couples.

Whilst our American Air Hangar is home to the SR-71 Blackbird and many other striking Anglo-American aircraft - be sure to experience a drink reception on the glass front of our hangar, which has created just a few of the striking photos you can see in our collection here.
