Please see the attached poster advertising a street party to celebrate the 80th Anniversary of Victory in Europe Day in Albert Street Carpark, Castlederg on Saturday 24th May 2025 starting at 1 pm until 6 pm.

They will turn back the clock to 1945 and would encourage everyone to come in period dress with their own family picnic. Decorated trestle tables for all will line the carpark as we settle down to celebrate. There will be wartime entertainment throughout the afternoon, recorded wartime memories from local folk, school art displays, a model of Castlederg Diamond through the war years and much more. You will hear victory speeches from King George VI and Prime Minister Winston Churchill. Sirens will sound and church bells will ring. Our Royal British Legion Castlederg Branch museum will be open all day and our Women's Institute will provide a celebration cake.

The day will culminate in a Victory procession as the vintage vehicles with a massed Pipe Band lead us in our period dress on a lap of the Diamond. Everyone welcome.
