A fantastic family day out
Once again Popham will be hosting its annual model show where families, enthusiasts and professional flyers come together to see the most thrilling model flying show in the south of England.
There will also be a static display under cover in the main marquee, as well as demonstration and 'have-a-go' model cars, military vehicles, boats and more. We'll have a bring and buy and FPV workshops alongside a range of event traders and of course our catering village, offering a selection of food and drink.
Join us for a great day out for all the family!
