UPDATED 25/9/24: Regrettably, we’ve had to cancel this event.
Despite a lot of interest from club members and fantastic reviews from those who have already been to the exhibition, the number actually booking free places at this event has been much lower than expected and it is not viable.
We’re really disappointed that our special day won’t now go ahead, but the exhibition is still open every Tuesday to Saturday until 2nd November, so there’s still time to make your own way there and see everything that’s displayed. The exhibition is already an amazing success, with over 7,500 people through the doors already!
Don’t forget the Time Lords and Thunderbirds event on 24th October, where you’ll meet writer Phil Ford (New Captain Scarlet) and voice artist Marc Silk (Thunderbirds Are Go).
Long-time Fanderson member Chris King has masterminded 54321 FAB! The Art of Supermarionation, now at The Hub at St Mary’s, Lichfield, Staffordshire.
54321 FAB! The Art of Supermarionation is an extensive free exhibition of original puppets, art, memorabilia and models from the TV shows of Gerry and Sylvia Anderson, running until 2nd November 2024.

As a thank you to Fanderson and its members for their support, Chris and the team at The Hub have arranged for club members to have exclusive free access to the exhibition on one day only – Sunday, 13th October 2024. The Hub is not open to the public on Sundays, so this will be an excellent opportunity for club members to see the exhibits up close, as well as socialising with old friends.
Keep an eye on this news story, as we’ll post news here of exciting guests that will join us on the day.
Club members attending will also be the first to be able to buy our upcoming Thunderbirds To The Rescue soundtrack CD!
Space at The Hub is limited, so click on this link to book your place now.
Nestled between Birmingham, Stoke-on-Trent and Nottingham in the Midlands, Lichfield is easy to get to via the M6 toll or M42 motorways, and The Hub at St Mary’s is a short (8 minute) walk from Lichfield City railway station.
