Daily Falconry Displays

decoration

Daily falconry displays start on the 1st April.

The Royal Armouries offers daily falconry displays, a unique experience for visitors, from April to the end of October.

Experience the thrill of seeing birds of prey up close in the Royal Armouries Menagerie and watch them flying in fascinating displays.

Here at the Museum in our daily flying displays, see if you can keep our bird in sight as it circles above the Tiltyard and swoops for its prey. Come and ask our resident falconer why a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.

Entry to the museum is free but there is a small charge for entry to the falconry shows.
