VISIT HANGARS
We have opened for Bookings (by prior arrangement) again from 1st March 2023.
Please only book via E-mail
A Volunteer Tour Guide – on their own time – would specifically drive to the hangars to meet the small group within each organised tour slot, so please understand that from the outset.
HOW TO BOOK A TOUR
There are up to 4 pre-booked tour slots available daily (7 days) at 10.30am / 11am and 2pm/2.30pm, and will last approx. 2 hrs.
Important Notes to the Public hoping to visit us:
-
All applications must be made at least 2 weeks prior to the visit date.
-
Please note that family visits are only usually available between March and October. We are normally closed to any visitors between November~February due to winter conditions (as the hangars are extremely "baltic" cold during winter months).
We're now No.1 for ‘Things To Do In Lisburn’ on TRIP ADVISOR. Why not write a Review*
*Strictly NON-Member reviews only please!
Notes to UAS Members:
Members are welcome all year round (especially Saturdays).
Members may also arrange to bring their family too (by prior appointment). See above.
If you're not a member, you can JOIN the UAS.
Alternatively donate securely on your iPhone / Android

I WANT TO BRING A LARGER GROUP?
With advanced pre-booking we are again, happy to accept bookings from larger groups including schools and organisations, but this will incur a booking fee.
You will need to apply for this via our interactive PDF Group Booking Form HERE.
If you have further questions before booking, you can also E-MAIL us first.
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?
*Your family visit is FREE OF CHARGE, yes FREE, however the UAS survives on both donations and our volunteers' own time and energy.
We hope you are inspired with what you see and experience and feel the aviation passion of volunteers.
It is up to you how much you feel it was worth after the personal tour is over but we are very appreciative and welcome a donation afterwards.
DO YOU ACCEPT CREDIT CARDS?
Yes, we have secure Contactless Card facilities at the hangars that can accept all Credit or Debit Cards / ApplePay / GooglePay etc.
We are
OPEN for Tour Bookings
An E-mailed pre-booking MUST be made for all visits and we need the following:
• Date & Time Slot preferred
• Number of Family members that will be visiting with you

Anyone wishing to visit with family, should make a booking at least 2 weeks prior via E-MAIL
WHAT HAPPENS THEN?
Once you have e-mailed your Booking (the only way we will accept Bookings currently).
Our Visit Co-Ordinator, Ricci Coulter will contact you to confirm (either via E-mail or Mobile) your Booking, or if your preferred date & time are not available; we'll then ask you to select another convenient date & time instead.
We look forward to welcoming you to our hangars and Heritage collection.
Please do NOT just arrive out of the blue during a week day. You will be turned away!
You MUST book via E-mail first please as the hangars are not always open.
