About this Event

80 years VJ Day ending WW2

Come and join us at Holt Community Centre, Kerridge Way Holt NR25 6DN

Experience the powerful music that inspired our nation during World War 11. Our journey begins on 3 September 1939, with Neville Chamberlain's historic address declaring war, From there, our 10 piece "Thing Ummy Bob Band" will have the audiences immersed in an evening of live music, heart felt nostalgia, and patriotic flag flying singalongs and dance.

This two-hour musical celebration features the timeless sounds of Glenn Miller, Gracie Fields, Arthur Askey, Vera Lynn and many more, culminating in a moving tribute with the "Last Post"

WW2 attire is welcome
