Be part of something new for the Sapper Family.
Royal Armouries Museum – Leeds | 25 April 2026

This April, we’re launching a new event, the Sapper Gathering at the Royal Armouries Museum, Leeds. This special event is brought to you by The Sapper Charity. A full day dedicated to bringing together serving Sappers, veterans and families to reconnect, learn and celebrate our shared Corps heritage. The daytime programme is and open and free to all members of the Sapper community, with exclusive access to the museum, talks, demonstrations and hands-on activities throughout. We’re especially keen to see serving personnel and units from across the region make the most of this opportunity and bring their families along for a great day out together.

In the evening, the event transitions to an over-18s black tie Gala Dinner in Armouries Hall, a ticketed occasion with great food, special guests and plenty of Sapper camaraderie. Whether you join us for the day, the evening, or both, we’d love you to be part of this new tradition from the very start.

Tickets for the Gala Dinner | £55 per head
Book by the 21st of February | £50 per head
