VE Day 80 – The Party at The Royal Albert Hall & London

VE Day 80: The Party’ will celebrate a pivotal day in our modern history through an evening of music-led storytelling.

Exactly 80 years on, it is one of the final Second World War anniversaries for the country to mark alongside those who lived through it; The Greatest Generation.

8 May 1945 was a day of celebration with the streets brimming with people singing and dancing; bittersweet for many who had lost loved ones in the war or were waiting for their safe return.

The RAF Squadronaires, part of The Central Band of the Royal Air Force, will take the audience back in time with iconic 1940s favourites, while the Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra will perform the nation’s best loved classical anthems, both joined by guest vocalists, with performances and narration by stars from stage and screen.

Held at the iconic Royal Albert Hall in London, this famous venue is always a magical experience so enjoy these spectacular surroundings for what is set to be one of London’s most special events this year. This special short break also includes free time in the fabulous city of London.

A great value way to see one of London’s top shows! Forget about driving, parking or finding your way. We’ll pick you up and take you straight into London and your overnight hotel before heading to the Royal Albert Hall for this wonderful event. You’ll also enjoy free time to soak up the London atmosphere before we take you back home again. What could be easier – or better value? Book early to secure your place!

An ideal choice for:

* Couples, friends and groups seeking a special trip away
* Anyone who wants to enjoy London and a fabulous show without the travel-hassle
* History enthusiasts, music lovers, theatre and arts fans
* Anyone wanting to experience a one-of-a-kind evening
