On Saturday 3rd July 2027, the Lake Grounds will welcome an estimated 10,000 to 15,000 visitors to honour our military personnel, veterans, and blue-light 999 responders. Organised by Posset Events in collaboration with Portishead Town Council, this massive community event relies on a dedicated team of volunteers to run safely and smoothly.
