Suffolk Day will return this year with a special theme - and the celebrations could coincide with the lifting of final coronavirus restrictions.
The event is always held on the longest day, which this year falls on Monday, June 21. That s also the date the last Covid restrictions could be lifted, if the Government says it is safe to do so.
People are urged to enjoy the day, and weekend before, safely and in line with any restrictions that may still be in force.
This year, the theme for the day is rejoice, revisit, remember - with people urged to enjoy the best of the county that they may have missed during the pandemic.

St Elizabeth Hospice has thanked the community after its Christmas appeal raised more than £75,000 to help provide care for hundreds of sick people in Suffolk.
The Ipswich-based hospice, which provides care across Suffolk, ran its Be a Star campaign in the run up to Christmas, encouraging people across Suffolk and Norfolk to host socially-distanced fundraising activities.
Of the £77,000 raised, £13,000 was donated by businesses across the region as part of a matched giving scheme – with firms including Energy Power Resources, Escape Ipswich and George Baker Shipping matching every £1 raised.
