VE Day 80th Anniversary

Thursday 8th May 2025

While no official events are currently scheduled in Holt for Thursday 8th May, we are encouraging residents and local groups to mark VE Day by lighting Beacons and Lamps of Peace. We also invite you to celebrate throughout the day with street parties, garden gatherings, and events in churches, pubs, and clubs.

Holt Town Council will raise a special VE Day flag and lay flowers at the War Memorial, as well as flowers on the War Graves at Cley Road Cemetery.

A Commemorative Service will take place at St. Andrew’s Church at 5.30pm, and all are warmly welcome to attend.

Let’s come together to remember, honour, and celebrate this important day in our history.
