100 years after the first tank battle in history, at the Battle of Flers-Courcelette, the Tank 100 event will be commemorating the centenary of the tank, the sacrifice of Britain's tank soldiers and Bovington's role in armoured warfare.
Tank 100 is being held in conjunction with the Royal Tank Regiment and will feature living history, commemorative tank displays, talks and more.
Visitors can expect to see a display of modern British Army vehicles, as well as a variety of historic vehicles from The Tank Museum collection, to exemplify the legacy of those first tanks and the men who fought in them.
There will also be a First World War mock battle, including pyrotechnics, living history re-enactors and an aircraft display from the Great War Display Team. The arena displays will end with a short commemorative service, led by the Royal Tank Regiment.
