Dartmouth has been the home of Royal Navy Officer training since 1863 and this year marks the 120 anniversary as we continue to share a close and special bond with the town, local area and wider Royal Navy. By opening our doors to the public, we hope to strengthen these ties, continue to build upon our shared interest and thank the local community for their continued support.
We will host a wide variety of local businesses, groups, charities and organisations, as well as various affiliated Naval parties, in order to not only proudly display what we do, but also thank the community and organisations that help us do it.
Food and refreshments will be available, provided by our own suppliers, ESS, and local businesses, along with entertainment for all ages.
Further information about the day's events can be found further down the page. We wil be showcasing our world-leading facilities and training, both of which ensure that the Royal Navy remains a cutting-edge force for good.
