Lawn by Building 2000

Ever wanted to jump in the cockpit and fly over the skies in an air ambulance?

Well, now’s your chance – sort of!

The Hampshire & Isle of Wight Air Ambulance team will be here on site at Lakeside in one of their charity vans which has been converted into a unique mobile flight simulator.  Your chance to take to the sky without even leaving Lakeside!

The Sim Van is an opportunity to experience flying the Air Ambulance.  Budding pilots can experience the thrill of flying a helicopter with realistic simulations of the physical, visual and auditory sensations of a real flight.

The team will set the runway for our local airport, and you can even fly over your home before landing.  Test your skills as a pilot and see if you have what it takes to complete an emergency mission.

The Sim Van is a unique flying experience suitable for those aged 11+ years.

If you’d like to have a go and find out more about the great work of the charity, pop along the lawn area in front of Building 2000 (where the street food stands are) on Thursday 7 September from 12 noon to 2pm.

Please book your spot on the My Lakeside occupiers app.

Mary Rose Presentation

Free Presentation on The Mary Rose

Henry VIII’s Flagship in Portsmouth

Event Information

Event Date:

11/10/2023

Event Time:

1pm – 2pm

Event Location:

The Auditorium

Hear the amazing story of The Mary Rose…

From the depths of the Solent to Portsmouth Historic Dockyard, the Mary Rose has had a long journey. Built from 1510 and launched the following year, she served Henry VIII for 34 years before sinking dramatically in 1545 defending England from a French invasion fleet. There she lay until 1971, when a team of divers, led by the late Alexander McKee, rediscovered the wreck site.

What followed was a ground-breaking feat of underwater archaeology, as hundreds of divers worked tirelessly to recover the Mary Rose and return her to the surface. Many still remember the momentous day she finally broke free of the water on 11 October 1982. After essential conservation work, the Mary Rose was reunited with her artefacts telling the stories of the men who lived, worked, and died onboard.

Now set in the heart of the Historic Dockyard, the Mary Rose Museum is a time capsule of Tudor life. With over 19,000 genuine Tudor artefacts, the museum holds the largest collection on display in the world.

Hear the extraordinary story of Henry VIII’s favourite ship, from her fateful last battle to her miraculous rediscovery at the bottom of the Solent over 400 years later.

This presentation is open to everyone, it’s free to attend, and will be held in The Auditorium at Lakeside on Wednesday 11 October from 1pm to 2pm.
