Our celebrated World War Two event is back at Dover Castle for another spectacular Father’s Day weekend.
Watch action-packed scenes between the allied and German forces featuring striking pyrotechnics, see military motorcyclists perform tricks and get up close to vintage army vehicles. Get a taste of life on the Home Front with samples from cooking demonstrations as you explore the living history tents. Kids can get hands-on with activities in the field hospital, or take on the sergeant’s infamous assault course.
The castle will open at 10am, and tickets are valid all day, so you can arrive at any time.
