About this Event

The 09 May is Liberation Day, a significant date in the island's calendar marking the end of the Second World War. The Channel Islands were infamously the only United Kingdom territories to be occupied by the German Forces.

Liberation day is considered as Jersey's national day, involving celebrations based around Liberation Square, Royal Square and the Weighbridge. Expect live music, historical re-enactments, food stalls and on-stage entertainment.

Details of events taking place on the day are yet to be announced but will be added as soon as available.
