Saturday 30 June 2012 : Plymouth Hoe
Plymouth Armed Forces Week is an annual event held in support of the national Armed Forces Day initiative.
Special events and activities take place across the city each year to raise awareness of the city's service community and celebrate the outstanding contribution it makes to our country, as well as forge closer links between the armed forces and young people.
This year Plymouth is proud to have been chosen to host the main Armed Forces Day celebrations for the whole of the UK, which take place on Saturday 30 June.
The city will welcome thousands of visitors from home and abroad to join in honouring and paying tribute to the dedication of the nation's serving personnel, veterans and their families, as well as the many agencies that support them.
Details are still being finalised but we are working with the armed forces and our partners to stage a spectacular and exciting day of entertainment, air and sea displays and activities for the whole family.
