The Royal British Legion (RBL) Lincoln, supported by Lincoln College and a host of other sponsors, is to celebrate Armed Forces Day in Lincoln on Saturday 28th June.
Armed Forces Day is a national event held on the last Saturday of June to recognise and thank the men and women of the British Armed Forces, including current and past service members, reservists, veterans, and cadets.
Chair of the City of Lincoln Branch Royal British Legion and Director of Estates at Lincoln College, Nick Pettit GM QGM, says: “This is going to be a really great day for the city. As well as a parade and band event in Lincoln Market Square, just off the Cornhill, we’ll also be running a day of fun over at The Drill, where there will be live music and food available for all.
“We wanted to ensure the future of the celebrations for Armed Forces Day and we’re really excited to be working with a range of very generous sponsors in order to make it happen. Armed Forces Day is really important to the people of Lincolnshire and so to be able to use The Drill and to make a day of it is really special and we can’t wait to welcome everyone.”
