This 9 May marks 81 years since Jersey was liberated from occupation and the end of the Second World War, and celebrations are once again island-wide.
A full programme of entertainment will take place in Weighbridge Place over the Liberation Day weekend.
Additionally, the Slave Workers’ Memorial Ceremony will again be held in the grounds of Jersey Crematorium at Westmount at 3 pm. It remembers the thousands of forced and enslaved labourers who were brought to Jersey against their will during the Occupation.
This year’s Liberation Day will follow the traditional format with a public service of thanksgiving, and a re-enactment to mark the 81st anniversary of the Liberation of Jersey held in Liberation Square at 10.30 am.
As the day falls within the pre-election period, consideration has been given to the Special Sitting of the States Assembly. Trinity Constable Philip Le Sueur, who is not seeking re-election, will therefore speak on behalf of the Assembly in Liberation Square.
Following the official service and re-enactment, the stage will host a line-up of 1940s-inspired music and dance.
Islanders can enjoy entertainment, local food vendors and a wide range of local trade and craft stalls.
Saturday will conclude with an evening performance from Brick House.
On Sunday 10 May, the celebrations continue with a more relaxed programme of acoustic music, family-friendly entertainment and market stalls.
