VICTORY
"History knows no greater display of courage than that shown by the people of the Soviet Union."
Henry Stimson
With 30 million dead, cities in ruins, its economy wrecked, the day the war ended has a special meaning for Russia. This is the most sacred public holiday. The Time of Remembrance and Reconciliation for Those Who Lost Their Lives during the Second World War is celebrated on May 8 and May 9 annually. Victory in Europe Day also known as VE Day and Victory Day is celebrated to mark the formal acceptance of World War II of Nazi Germany's surrender of its armed forces. The surrender ceremony was organised in a surviving manor in the outskirts of Berlin late on 8 May, when it was already 9 May in Moscow due to the difference in time zones.
It is therefore marked as the end of World War II in Europe and the end of Great Patriotic War and celebrated on May 8 by the Allies and on May 9 in Russia and former Soviet countries.
"The scale and grandeur of the Russian effort mark it as the greatest military achievement in all history."
General Douglas Macarthur
A concert to celebrate the VE Day

This year we traditionally organise a Victory concert for all veterans, a concert in two languages, Russian and English. Veterans will come from Russia and all over Great Britain. T Participants of the concert, both professional and amateur, are well known and loved not only in London, but also in other cities. Many are known internationally. All participants of the concert will be performing free of charge. Every year volunteers of the Russian Voluntary Bureau, musicians and experts of the Musicа Nova Academy and Ensemble Production, ladies of Sputnik association of Russian Wоmen, kids and teachers of many Russian supplementary schools, members of clubs and community organisations, companies and individuals help us. The concert will take place in the wonderful club Under The Bridge, the stadium of the Chelsea football club. In addition to venue hire costs, sound equipment, lighting equipment, technicians and other expenses, we still have items for which we need to raise funds - these are memorable gifts to veterans and a festive dinner.
