About
The Isle of Man's Armed Forces Day 2024 is a chance to show support for the men and women who make up the Armed Forces community: from currently serving troops to Service families, veterans and cadets.
Our Day will begin at 13:00 when the gardens of the Villa Marina open to the public. On display will be a range of stalls featuring Armed Forces' charities and a children's funfair. Visitors will also be entertained by live incidental music and various food concessions. The main feature of the day will be a Parade of serving personnel, veterans, cadet organisations and other uniformed organisations on the Island.
The Parade will begin at 14:00, marching along the Promenade from Regents Street to the Villa Marina, where the Lieutenant Governor of the Isle of Man will take the salute.
At 16:00, the inside of the Villa Marina will open for a free buffet tea in the Colonnade and Promenade Suites; the Villa bar will open at 16:00 and close at 17:00. The day itself will end at 17:00.
