Armed Forces North East Lincolnshire

Armed Forces Major Events Team

Events and Support


The Armed Forces Major Events Team (AFMET) are best known for our delivery of the largest armed forces weekend in the region which attracts very large numbers of visitors to the Borough of North East Lincolnshire adding massive commercial benefit to the area through attracting over 180,000 people and bolstering the local economy. We support our armed forces community not for a weekend, but throughout the year offering facilities within out HIVE as a one-stop-shop where our community comes together to receive direct support provided by professionals under one roof.


We also have a volunteer led cafe, serving homemade cakes and scones, freshly made sandwiches, paninis, toasted sandwiches, jacket potatoes and more. Open to serving personnel, veterans, families and the wider community, come join us at Blighty's Coffee Lounge. 


We are based at The Knoll, Knoll Street, Cleethorpes, DN35 8LL
