We renew our support for Armed Forces Day in Aldershot

We have shown our support for the Aldershot Armed Forces Day Prom in the Park for the second year running.

Aldershot Armed Forces Day

Supporting our communities

The event, which was held recently at Princes Gardens, was organised by Rushmoor Town Council for the people of Aldershot and Farnborough, with the ongoing work of the armed forces community in the region front and centre of the celebrations.

The main show included performances by two local concert bands - who led a patriotic programme of popular live music celebrating Britain’s armed forces community. An array of street food, drink and community-based stalls were available for attendees to enjoy.

Jenny Atherton, Events and Cultural Project Manager at Rushmoor Borough Council, said: “After last year's successful launch of the Aldershot Armed Forces Day Prom in the Park, I’m delighted this year’s event was another amazing day filled with family friendly entertainment. “We’d like to thank our sponsors, including Taylor Wimpey, for supporting us once again and The Garrison for helping us to put on this event.”
