In pictures: Sun shines on Armed Forces Day celebrations in Northampton

On Saturday (June 29), the event took place in the town centre, hosted by Northampton Town Council, and saw military personnel and residents attend.

The event included musical entertainment, speeches and interviews with those in the forces and war veterans.

There was also military-related charity and information stalls set up on All Saints’ Church Piazza.

Serving members of the armed forces and veterans were also invited to have a complimentary cream tea at the All Saints’ Bistro within the church.

This year, there was no parade, however organisers say there will be a bigger and better one in 2025 once the Market Square works are completed.
