The year 2025 marks 60 years since the closure of the operational station the museum now calls its home. Join us as we examine its Victorian architecture, the story behind the building, and its advanced technology at the time.

This December, as we mark the 85th anniversary of the Sheffield Blitz, we’ll be opening a brand new exhibition, thanks to funding from the National Lottery Heritage Fund. It will uncover the stories of the emergency services, the people behind the uniforms, and the children who supported them during the Blitz. Our current exhibition will close at the end of October 2025 to make way for this new display, opening on the weekend of Saturday 13 and Sunday 14 December 2025.

Join us this October half-term (Wednesday 29 October – Sunday 2 November) for a week of family fun as we explore the Heroes and Villains of the Sea.

​

Take part in pirate-themed crafts, activities and games in our Event Space and discover the daring world of pirates alongside the lifesaving work of the coastguard.

All activities are included with museum admission – the perfect adventure for your half-term break!
