Plymouth Armed Forces Day, in association with Babcock, will be returning on Saturday 24 June 2023, with an exciting day for all the family to enjoy on Plymouth Hoe, and celebrate our military and all the great work they do.
Armed Forces Day is a fantastic opportunity for everyone to come along and show their support for the men and women who make up the Armed Forces community from currently serving troops to reservists, veterans, cadets and their families.
There will be activities for all the family to enjoy and get involved in, from exploring military vehicles and equipment, to tackling the Royal Marines obstacle course. Explore the dynamic displays in the Royal Navy Village and chat to the RAF recruitment teams to learn more about the wide range of careers on offer, from Aircrew to Chef! Look out for the brilliant displays from the Emergency Services too, who will be on-hand to chat to you and offer advice, as well as explaining how they use their emergency equipment.
The Veterans Village will host lots of interesting and interactive displays, plus a wide range of charities and organisations offering information, support and advice, including training and recruitment opportunities for ex-Military Personnel.
Families can enjoy an exciting arena programme too, plus live music and the awesome Junior Field Gun competitions running throughout the day.
The day will finish at 10.30pm with a free evening concert, offering a selection of live music to dance and sing-a-long to.
