Brixham to Come Together for Remembrance Parade

On Sunday 8th November, 2026, Brixham will once again come together with a Remembrance Parade and Service, offering a time for reflection, gratitude, and collective remembrance.

Residents, visitors, and local organisations are invited to pause alongside the parade as it moves through the town, before gathering for the Service at the Memorial on Berry Head Road. The occasion provides an opportunity for the community to honour those who have served and sacrificed, and to stand together in quiet respect.

Following the service, the parade will continue through the town, concluding with the traditional salute on Fore Street.

As part of the commemorations, wreaths may also be laid at sea in tribute to those connected to Brixham’s strong maritime heritage. This act of remembrance remains a poignant part of the day for many local families and seafaring communities.

Temporary road closures will be in place during the morning to ensure the safety of all participants and spectators.
