Description
To mark the commemoration of D-Day (1944), a large parade of vintage military and civilian vehicles will take place on Friday 5 June 2026 in the historic areas of Sword, Juno and Gold Beach.
Departing from Camp Hillman in Colleville-Montgomery, an exceptional convoy of vintage vehicles, accompanied by participants in period 1944 dress, will pass through several towns along the Normandy coast and inland, offering the public a lively and moving immersion in history.
