Everyone is invited to Ecclesfield Park on Thursday, June 6 between 5:30pm and 9:30pm to commemorate 80 years since the Normandy landings in World War II.

With lots of nods to the past, the park will see a whole host of entertainment from local musicians, Ecclesfield School and Chapeltown Silver Prize Band.

There will be free rides and face painting for children, games and a pigeon treasure hunt which will be explained on the day! Prizes for best 40s dressed, best cake and the winners tug of war will be awarded.

People can also watch a parade of forces cadets, scouting and guiding groups while enjoying refreshments which will all be available onsite.

Everyone is invited, with musical acts to entertain everyone and ending with a beacon lighting, it should be a night to remember, and also a salute to the past.
