Salisbury City Council has announced plans for its Armed Forces Day celebrations this year.

The annual Armed Forces Day event is returning this June to honour and celebrate the brave members of our Armed Forces, past and present, who have dedicated their lives to serving our country.

The event will take place on Sunday, 22nd June at Salisbury Market Place and Guildhall Square, from 10 am to 4 pm.

There will be lots of activities for all the family to enjoy, including free workshops, military displays and army charity stalls, as well as street food and live music throughout the day.

Salisbury City Council are looking for food and drink vendors, retail and charity stalls, activity or workshop stalls and fair ride operators to be part of this event. With many visitors and residents of Salisbury attending every year, it is a great opportunity to showcase a business in the centre of the city.
