With around a dozen vehicles on display, there will be plenty for everyone to see. Over the course of the Tall Ships event, which runs from Saturday through until Tuesday, there are a multitude of different shows and features. For more information on the itinerary, please check out the Tall Ships website.

Building work on the exterior of the building has now been completed and the next phase, which will see the interior being transformed, will start very shortly. It is hoped that the museum will open in the autumn of 2011 and we will bring you progress updates as and when they become available.
