Armed Forces Day 2024 promises to be a great day of free entertainment for all the family in celebration of our Armed Forces and all they do for the city and our country.

Sponsored by local business Collins Aerospace, this year’s event is on Saturday 29 June, noon to 4pm, at West Park, with activities for people of all ages, focusing on free family fun throughout the day.

City of Wolverhampton’s Mayor, Councillor Linda Leach, said: “I hope as many people as possible from across the City come along to Armed Forces Day and show their support. 

“Wolverhampton has a special relationship with our Armed Forces and this fantastic, free and fun event for all the family is a wonderful way to mark this - I look forward to seeing you there, joining the festivities with you and celebrating all that the Armed Forces do to defend our nation at home and abroad.”

The Armed Forces Parade will take place at 1pm and there will also be funfair rides and inflatables, street food and bar traders, free activities including face painting, Dr. Bike sessions, circus activities, plus a chance to meet and chat with local members of the Armed Forces at information stalls.
