RISC OS eXperience


The annual Big Ben Club day will be on Saturday May 10th 2025.

The ROX is the largest Acorn retro-computing and RISC-OS event on the European mainland. Come and see the oldest and newest in Acorn retro and ARM. Hardware and software for systems ranging from an Acorn System 1 to Titanium.

The Big Ben Club has been all about Acorn computers for decades, 8-bit computers such as the BBC-B to systems based on the ARM processor that run RISC-OS such as the Raspberry Pi.

RISC-OS was the first operating system for ARM processors long before LINUX, Android and iOS. Even on a Raspberry Pi Zero it runs super comfortably because RISC-OS requires few resources.

In addition to the members meeting each other regularly in their regions, we have a 'show-off' day once a year where we exchange knowledge and experiences in a relaxed atmosphere. There will also be the necessary Acorn and ARM systems set up and presentations will be given throughout the day. For you as a visitor a unique opportunity to get acquainted with the Big Ben Club and the fascinating hobby of retro computing in an accessible way.

We warmly welcome you, admission is free and even parking is free. The location is also easily accessible by public transport. The bus stop is in front of the door and the train station is within walking distance.
