The reunion is for people who worked there prior to May 1998, when the mine was closed.
Reunion organiser Brian Fogg said the first two reunions – held in 2012 and 2014 – were a great success, with more than 100 people in attendance at both.
So the decision was made to continue the get-togethers every two years.
Mr Fogg started at the mine in 1976 and worked there for 24 years.
He said the reunion is a great opportunity to catch up with old friends and share stories from their working days.
The reunion will start at 1pm. No RSVP is necessary; just turn up on the day.
