Entertainers include Jayne Darling., Miss Marina Mae, Kev Mack, Lula May and Johnny Victory who will be performing songs from the 1940’s each day.
Children’s activities include a ‘Bootcamp’ with Sergeant Major ‘Marmite’ who will put them through their paces.
There will be replica Spitfire and Messerschmitt aeroplanes on display.
Marketing Manager, Amanda Blair, said: “The event is increasingly popular every year with people who love the atmosphere of 1940’s Britain. We offer reduced admission if you dress in 1940’s attire or Second World War Home Front uniform.”
