THE EVENT

 

 

 

The 9th edition is again organized by the non-profit organization "Bevrijding".

 

We stick to our original concept: a military history show with its own character where the atmosphere is cosy. An event that’s a fun day out for the enthusiastic collector and his/ her family.

Due to organizational reasons we had to keep the wings section to a minimum. This is why you will see us more under our new name “Ursel Military History Show”.

We will compensate he loss of the wings section with more musical appearances and entertainment, demonstrations and living history displays.
