Invasion Colchester, Colchester

Saturday 07 September 2024
Location : 360 Building: 42 Culver Street East, Colchester, CO1 1LE, United Kingdom
Now in its twelfth year Invasion Colchester has grown and grown and has rapidly become an annual highlight in the trooping calendar! The UK Garrison will be working alongside the Invasion Colchester team to raise money via bucket donations throughout the town by posing for photos and interacting with the public.
Last year we helped raise over ??15,000 in donations with a share of the monies raised by Invasion Colchester going to St Helena Hospice, Colchester & Ipswich Hospitals Charity's Cancer Centre Campaign and Mind (Mid & North East Essex).

After being very popular at LFCC we'll hopefully be bringing the speeder bike and tatooine market stall along to help raise donations and will be trooping alongside our brothers and sisters in the Force from the Droidbuilders UK, Mando Mercs, Rebel Legion, Saber Guild and The Dark Empire. This is a brilliant opptunity to showcase our Reel Icons members.

Events disclaimer

Event times

The times given are the times we will be on site at the event but unfortunately this doesn't necessarily mean we will be available to meet you throughout the whole of this period. Our plan for the day is usually confirmed with the event organisers closer to the event or even on the day. We will also require refreshment breaks. You may be able to get more specific details from the event organisers themselves if you contact them for when we are scheduled to meet with the public.

Star Wars & Reel Icons costumers

This has been added to the event details to let you know what kind of costumers this event has requested i.e. Star Wars only, Reel Icons only or a mixture of costumers. With all our events, we cannot guarantee what costumers will be available to attend as we are all volunteers who do this in our spare time so it is always on a 'best endeavours' basis.

Cancellations

Unfortunately, sometimes our attendance at an event is cancelled. This is infrequent but can happen for a variety of reasons including the event itself being cancelled or rescheduled by the organiser, inclement weather, costumers that are within the locale of that event being unavailable or ill. We recommend that you check back regularly with this calendar to ensure our attendance at a particular event is still scheduled.

The UK Garrison is proud to support the following charities.
