History is repeating itself this Saturday📣Take a look at this incredible throwback image from A & E.
🪖This Saturday, 20th June, the tanks and heavy armor are back for Armour & Embarkation 2026 and it is going to be bigger and better than ever before.
🕒 Why You Need to Arrive Early, from 11am.
The main convoy arrives at 3:30pm, but if you wait until then to turn up, you will miss half the magic (and struggle to find a viewing spot). We are expecting thousands of people to line the streets, so here is why you should beat the crowds and make a day of it:
🚩 From 11am - 5:30pm | Get up close and personal with the Military Vehicle Trust static display. Meet the crews and explore the machines that made history.
🚩11am – 5pm | Model Plane and Peg Doll making for the little ones with Houseworks Dorset CIC
🚩1:30pm – 2:30pm | The Decadettes performing live, turning the Square into a 1940s swing dancefloor💃
🚩All-Day Street Party | Our friends at Copper Street Brewery are hosting a brilliant street party all weekend long. Pop in early for a drink and soak up the sunshine.
Arriving early means you can grab a table at one of our restaurants, browse the shops, and lock down the absolute best view before the ground starts shaking at 3:30pm.
