Along with our regular programming, the Museum produces and hosts special galas and events each year. From air shows to black-tie affairs, we run the gamut. See our upcoming special events below:
The Museum plays host to numerous special lectures each year, featuring prominent authors, WWII veterans, important political figures, and more.
In addition to the knowledge and resources housed on our six-acre campus, the Museum also annually gathers prestigious historians and speakers from across the globe for various enlightening conferences and symposia, including the renowned International Conference on World War II, hosted in New Orleans each year.
The mission of The National WWII Museum Speakers Bureau is to introduce America’s premier source for WWII history and knowledge so audiences can better understand the story of the American experience in the war that changed the world.
