A SPECIAL event will be held in Plymouth to mark 50 years since the first Brittany Ferries voyage between the city and France.
The cross-Channel operator is preparing a 50th anniversary celebration for January 2, 2023, with Plymouth at its heart.
Twinning committees representing towns, villages and communes from across Brittany have been invited to travel to Plymouth on the company’s flagship, Pont-Aven, which has been specially rerouted for the celebratory voyage.
They will be met in Millbay by their twin-town counterparts from towns in the South West of England and Wales, as well as the great and good of Britain’s Ocean City. An afternoon reception and gala dinner on board the vessel will follow the ship’s arrival.
