Other features of the event will be 1920’s themed fairground type games – along the lake side – past the boat house. These will be free to use from 4pm.
There will be food and drink vendors across the park as well as The Pavilion Café open to provide refreshments.
The Mayor of Warminster, Cllr Stacie Allensby said: “We are delighted to have booked some great musical acts – with the Warminster Park Centenary celebrations set to be another big event that brings the town together. We can’t wait to celebrate 100 years of the park with everyone.”
