    The Vintage Computer Festival is an international event to celebrate the history of computing.

    ​

    First held in the US in 1997, the festivals now take place all over America and Europe.

     

    In 2010, Bletchley Park and the National Museum of Computing hosted Britain's first-ever VCF. Organised by Simon Hewitt and backed by a team of volunteers, the inaugural festival was a huge success. The weekend-long event was accompanied by a talk, Q&A and concert by eighties synth legends OMD.

     

    Three years on, many of the core team who helped organise he original VCF-GB reunited for a second event to be hosted by Snibston Discovery Museum in Leicestershire. This ran alongside Silicon Dreams 2013.
