The Isle of Man Armed Forces Day (AFD) 2025 is a chance to show your support for the men
and women who make up the Armed Forces community on the Island, from serving personnel to
Service families, veterans and cadets. Centred on the Villa Marina and Gardens in Douglas, AFD
takes place on Saturday 28 June 2025 and offers free access to all. We are open to the public
from 13:00-17:00 in the Villa Marina and Gardens and the day will feature several Armed Forces and Veterans Charities stalls, a funfair, food and drink outlets and live entertainment. The highlight will be a
parade of serving military personnel, veterans, cadets and members of the emergency services
marching along the Promenade from Regent Street to the Villa Marina, beginning at 14:00. There
will be a complimentary buffet tea for all between 16:00-17:00 inside the Villa Marina and the Day
will end at 17:00. There will be a separate social event in the evening specifically for the Armed
Forces community, their friends and families.
