Armed Forces Day, Cardiff

Khandie is honoured to be asked to be the host for the 2011 Cardiff Armed Forces Day celebrations. With over 80,000 expected to attend plus numerous squadrons and regiments from HM Forces this is definitely her BIGGEST gig to date!

The event will take place Saturday 25th June at Cooper’s Field, Bute Park, Cardiff. This will be an action packed day to celebrate our prestigious Armed Forces both serving and veterans home and overseas. With ceremonies, displays, demonstrations and fabulous entertain this is going to be one heck of an amazing day. Khandie, a former serving member of the RAF herself, has taken this opportunity to heart and will pull out all the stops to ensure the best Armed Forces Day to date.
