75th Anniversary of D-Day Commemoration
- This event has passed.
June 4, 2019 @ 10:00 am - 5:00 pm
June 6, 2019 marks the 75th Anniversary of D-Day, a milestone that is expected to represent the last large gathering of D-Day veterans around the globe. The youngest D-Day vets are in their middle-90s; a few more years will find the last of them gone from us. To mark this milestone and take advantage of the opportunities for discussion and commemoration it presents, the National D-Day Memorial in Bedford, Virginia will observe the 75th Anniversary with six days of ceremonies, displays, interviews, and much more.
Our thanks to our partners for the 75th Anniversary Commemoration: Framatome Inc., Liberty University, Dominion Energy Virginia, BWX Technologies, Inc., Southside Electric Cooperative, Member One Federal Credit Union, Destination Bedford Virginia, and Visit Lynchburg, Virginia
Destination Bedford offers big, bold and unforgettable experiences. You’ll see stunning beauty in the Blue Ridge Mountains and hear stories of bravery that will take your breath away at the National D-Day Memorial.
