VE Day Rallies

No doubt there will be quite a few rallies on that weekend but the only ones I can find that specify VE Day celebrations is Leicestershire.

Have a look at their website.

Asking because my local centre have a rally based on the Bank holiday Monday still.  I know the announcement about changing in the Bank Holiday may well have come too late to reorganise events.

The Gwent Centre are running their 50th Anniversary Rally and VE Day Anniversary celebration over the new May Day Bank holiday 7th to 10th May 2020 at Monmouth Showground.

There is a full and exciting programme of live entertainment on Friday and Saturday evening and a full licensed bar. All for an all inclusive price of £60.00.

booking# can be made via a booking form at the Gwent Centre web site.  www.gwentcentre.co.uk

Not sure if they are doing anything in particular, RNR, but the Thetford Forest Club Site is adjacent to a WW2 Tank & Monument & I have, in the past, been entertained by Locals , Military , and Club members . So who knows what you will unearth if you ask the wardens.

There is usually a 40’s weekender over the Whitsun weekend bank holiday near Telford/Ironbridge.  Not been there yet, hopefully one day.

Thank you for the heads up, can not see any info on the website yet, but we’re very interested.  Just down the road from us.

The Suffolk Centre is holding a VE day rally, with a 'street party' type afternoon on the Friday at Kersey Mill, Suffolk

East Kent Centre have one too...on Sheppey I think.
