Armed Forces Day

We want to show our appreciation to the Armed Forces community, serving troops, veterans and cadets by providing free travel* across our bus network on Armed Forces Day (Saturday 28th June 2025).

Current and former members of the military can travel for free* if they are:

• Members of the Armed Forces in uniform or wearing medals
• Members of the Armed Forces who present a valid identification card
• Members of the Cadet Forces in uniform
• A veteran displaying valid identification such as the MOD-issued Veteran’s Badge or wearing medals

We hope the free travel will help those attending the many commemorative events to show their support to the men and women who make up the Armed Forces community.

If you're a serving troop, veteran or cadet, come and enjoy free travel* with First Bus!

*Please note free travel is not available on special event services.
