Now an established fixture in the county Festival of Remembrance, the parade at Stow Maries Great War Aerodrome is a hugely popular event. While the event is free to attend with a ticket, we welcome donations.
We welcome ticket holders to arrive from midday. The parade will begin in the early afternoon.
Assembled together, the Uniformed Youth Units representing all arms will be joined by serving members of HM Forces as they pay their respects to those lost in all conflicts.
As the last remaining functioning Great War aerodrome, hosting the largest collection of Great War Royal Flying Corps buildings, Stow Maries is a poignant and appropriate place to visit for this sensitive service.
All visitors and participants not on parade will require a ticket. All those on parade will need to be in uniform.
We urge all attendees to car share!
Tickets are free but limited. Non-ticketholders will be turned away due to shortage of parking spaces.
