Armed Forces Day

Help our campaign  Become a member  Be a councillor

Armed Forces Day takes place on the last Saturday each June, falling this year on 27 June.

It is a chance to show support for the men and women who make up the Armed Forces community: from currently serving personnel to Service families, veterans and cadets.

It also marks the culmination of a week of celebrations, beginning on Monday 23 June, when the public show their support and appreciation for the Armed Forces community. It also includes Reserves Day (25 June), which provides the country with an opportunity to recognise our Reserve Forces.

There are many ways for people, communities and organisations across the country to show their support and get involved. Use our interactive map to find your local event.

Supporting our Armed Forces

Showing support for the Armed Forces provides a much-valued morale boost for serving personnel, veterans and their families. You can find out more about what they are doing at home and around the world by visiting the official sites of the Royal Navy, British Army and Royal Air Force.

Supporting our sailors, soldiers and aviators goes beyond Armed Forces Day. In fact, the Government, local communities and businesses  across the UK have committed to supporting Armed Forces personnel past and present by signing up to the Armed Forces Covenant.

Find out more about the Covenant here.
