VE Day is celebrated on May 8 to honour the important day in 1945 on which the Allied Forces formally accepted Germany’s surrender.
For the 2025 the event was led by the RBL Scarborough, held in the Garden of Remembrance in Alma Square.
The event included a parade of standards, two minute silence and the ceremonial laying of wreaths.
Cadets, Veterans, school children and residents all came together to remember this momentous occiasion.
Elsewhere in the town at Scarborough Library, staff, visitors and local care home residents have been sharing memories over tea and scones, and the wellbeing choir performed. Displays from the British Newspaper Archive are running throughout the month in Masham and Nidderdale libraries.
