Royal Greenwich Armed Forces Day and Great Get Together Festival! June 29, 2013

On Saturday 29 June the Royal Artillery Barracks will be hosting one of the UK’s largest Armed Forces Day events. The event is combined with the Great Get Together Festival - a large and vibrant community celebration.

The array of attractions will include a military and vintage vehicle display zone, historical re-enactments, walk round entertainers, a live music stage, charity and commercial stalls, animal displays, lazer quest, zorbing balls, fairground rides, sports taster sessions and many other things for all ages to see and do.

At the heart of the event is a large arena with a thrilling programme of spectacular military displays and marching bands, along with stunt car shows, bird of prey demonstrations, and more.

Entry to the event is free. Visitors will be able to park in dedicated parking areas for a small charge.

The event is organised by the Royal Borough of Greenwich in partnerhsip with the Army at the Royal Artillery Barracks. When it was last held in 2011 it attracted between around 20,000 people. In 2012 the site was used for the Olympic shooting events. We are planning on making this year’s event the best yet!
