2027
FROM £152 PER PERSON
The All Tests Reunion is held in September each year at Pontins, Sand Bay, Weston-Super-Mare.
The adult-only reunion brings together Veterans and their families for a week-long holiday. The organising committee provides entertainment for the whole week and provides an environment for old colleagues to get together and discuss their time at the tests. 2027 commemorates the 75th anniversary of the first British test.
2027 will take place from 13th-17th September 2027.
The event is a fantastic opportunity to meet up with other Nuclear Veterans. We look forward to seeing you all in September 2027.
