Shuttleworth has announced its 2026 ‘Events & More’ season, with occasions ranging from a comedy night, to music performances, and a Christmas lights trail.

The Biggleswade, Bedfordshire estate is home to a famous collection of aircraft, presenting the fleet in amazing air shows, plus a range of motor vehicles from over the years. Now, Shuttleworth’s programme has expanded, and the CTA member is keen to invite groups to its wider events line-up in 2026.

With up to 20 events taking place in addition to air shows, the Jacobean-style mansion house will feature highlights including its inaugural comedy night on 9 January. Music in Spring will include an Abba Night on 11 April, followed up with the String Quartet: Spring Sessions on 24 April. Shuttleworth’s Summer Fete Open Weekend returns on 4 & 5 July, while a Blues Brothers night will cap Summer 2026 on 28 August.

This coming winter, Shuttleworth will also stage its festive light trail, starting on 5 December 2025, running until 3 January 2026. The illuminated trail lets visitors explore the Swiss Garden’s features aglow in vibrant colours, while the aircraft hangers and aeronautical exhibits will also be illuminated. This event is also scheduled for the 2026/27 winter season.
