About This Event

The Coventry Blitz Walking Tour takes place at the Coventry Transport Museum on 14 November 2026. This outing describes the city's devastation during eleven continuous hours of German bombing in 1940. Tickets are available for £11.55, and various performers will guide attendees through this historical narrative.

A walking tour describing the Coventry Blitz of 14 November 1940, when for eleven continuous hours German bombers decimated the city.

The intense bombing of Coventry on 14 November 1940, when more than 500 German bombers spent eleven hours bombarding the city in an operation codenamed Moonlight Sonata, was the first and most devastating air attack in history up to that point.

Two-thirds of the city was destroyed, including over 4,300 homes.

Join historian Adam Wood for a walking tour of sites associated with the Coventry Blitz as he relates the chain of events on that fateful night, and hear the personal stories of those who lost their homes, livelihoods - and sometimes their lives.
