Torrevieja celebrates British Armed Forces Day with a parade and official ceremony

The city of Torrevieja will be the setting next Saturday, June 27, for the celebration of British Armed Forces Day, an event organized by The Royal British Legion of Torrevieja in collaboration with the Department of Coexistence and Integration of the Torrevieja City Council.

The commemoration will begin at 6:00 p.m. with a parade of banners that will travel through the city center from Plaza Miguel Hernández to Plaza de la Constitución, accompanied by the musical group Torrevieja Pipes & Drums, in a display of tradition and solemnity.

Upon arrival at the Plaza de la Constitución, the official ceremony will take place, attended by the Mayor of Torrevieja, Eduardo Dolón, along with institutional representatives, the Military Attaché of the Embassy of the United Kingdom in Spain, Captain Anthony Crabb, the Vice-Consul of the United Kingdom in Alicante, Elizabeth Bell, and members of the Royal British Legion and residents of the city.

During the event, tribute will be paid to the men and women who are part of the British Armed Forces, in a day that highlights the bonds of friendship and coexistence between the resident British community and the municipality of Torrevieja.

The celebration of Armed Forces Day once again highlights the open and inclusive nature of Torrevieja, a city where citizens of more than a hundred nationalities live together and where the British community is one of the international groups with the greatest roots and participation in the social and cultural life of the municipality.
