Thursday 8th May 2025

Hi ,

And welcome to the 80th Anniversary VE Day Celebration newsletter!

Although today (Thursday) marks the official anniversary of VE Day, (the end of World War 2 in Europe), celebrations have been enjoyed around the country just as they did in 1945  and locally all week, the likes of which we are unlikely to see again. On Sunday 11th May, you can all get together at Welland Park (10.30am - 3.30pm) for one BIG party to end a memorable week in which we've all had time to reflect on the horrors of war, and how fortunate and grateful we are to be living in the freedom we enjoy today.

Please scroll down this page and take a look at the week's local offers from some of the best recommended businesses in Market Harborough and find loads of upcoming events in and around the town, brought to you by thebestof Market Harborough, your community hub for thebestof everything local.

Have an amazing week!

Simon
