Timings for a planned flypast by the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight's Avro Lancaster in South Warwickshire have been confirmed.

The local community is invited to the Pump Room Gardens to mark Armed Forces Day this June.

The free annual event will run from 11am to 3pm on 28 June and will feature the flypast from the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight's Avro Lancaster.

Warwick District Council said this is expected around 1.44pm. The route is yet to be confirmed.

Organisers said: "Come and join us for our Armed Forces Day Community Event in Warwick District as a thank you to current and former serving members of the Armed Forces and their families."

A staple event in the district's calendar, it builds on the success of previous years, with recognition of the Armed Forces and the contributions that allies have made in past conflicts, and continue to make and strengthen.

The event is completely free, with activities, information, performances and displays aimed at families, individuals, military enthusiasts and current and former serving members of the Armed Forces.

Visitors can expect village of stalls showcasing the military museums from Warwick, performances by Ruby Ann Sings, local military regiments, military vehicles, free children's activities including bouncy castle, trampolines and assault course, free hot dogs and ice-creams and a Sikh Langar vegetarian food (while stocks last) and a tri-service competition.
