Holocaust Memorial Day 2025

The UK Holocaust Memorial Day (HMD) Ceremony is the focal point of HMD in the UK and brings together the civic, faith and political leadership of the country, alongside survivors of the Holocaust and more recent genocides. HMD 2025 will be a particularly significant year as we mark 80 years since the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau and 30 years since the genocide in Bosnia.
