VE Day 80: A National Celebration
The May 5 flypast marks 80 years since victory in Europe during World War II. It will soar over a military procession moving from Whitehall to Buckingham Palace, kicking off a four-day nation-wide celebration. Communities are urged to join the fun with street parties and events.
“The 80th anniversaries of VE and VJ Day are important opportunities for communities to come together to pay tribute to all those who served in the Second World War and to reflect on the values that they were fighting for. By taking part in these significant commemorations, people across society will be able to hear our veterans’ stories first hand, to reflect and remember, and ensure that their stories of sacrifice and service are remembered for generations to come.” — Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy
What’s Next for King’s Birthday Flypast?
Details for the June 14 royal flypast remain under wraps but are expected soon. The RAF notes the 2025 aerobatic schedule could grow, with dates subject to change.
