On Sunday, 14th June, 2026, on the Plymouth Hoe Promenade, the ‘Raising Of The Flag’ will mark the 44th anniversary of Liberation for the Falklands.
The Argentine invaders surrendered to British forces on 14th June, 1982, and the day is celebrated in the Falkland Islands as Liberation Day.
The Falklands were freed after an unprovoked Argentine invasion—and its commander, General Mario Menéndez, surrendered to British forces at Stanley, marking the end of the war in the South Atlantic.
You can watch the poignant ceremony live on our webcams from 10:30am with the armed forces, veterans, and the Royal British Legion around the Belvedere flagpole.
