For the 50th Anniversary of Army Volunteering and as part of the 175th Anniversary of Military Music, the Luxembourg Army invites the general public and all interested parties to attend the "Arméifest um Rousegäertchen” at the Place des Martyrs in Luxembourg-Ville on 23 June.
The popular festival celebrating the anniversary of these two milestones in the history of the Luxembourg army will take place at the end of the battle that takes place from 11:30 on the Avenue de la Liberté in the presence of HRH the Grand Duke and HRH the Grand Duke.
The "Arméifest um Rousegäertchen" will start at 13.30 after the taking of weapons.
Free drinks and snacks will be served by the army until 16:00. At the same time, the army will display military equipment and vehicles, including a historic cargo. A Dixie band will provide military music.
An "Open Door" day will also take place at the Military Centre in Diekirch on 9 July between 10:00 and 18:00, during which the public will be able to visit some of the Härebierg's facilities and to attend demonstrations and exhibitions of military equipment.
