The Royal British Legion Wales Festival of Remembrance returns for its 45th Annual event on Saturday 1st November 2025 from 7pm. The event is held at the International Conference Centre Wales, this new purpose built and modern location is just off the M4 motorway near the city of Newport in South Wales.
This year is the 80th anniversary of the end of the Second World War. It was the most devastating and lethal war in history. It spanned the globe and claimed tens of millions of lives. The Royal British Legion will pay tribute to the Second World War generation, from British, Commonwealth and Allied Forces, in marking VE Day (8th May) and VJ Day (15th August).
I think the date posted is wrong! Surely the date SHOULD BE 01 November as Remembrance Sunday falls on the 9th and in previous years the Festival is held one week and one day in advance of that date.
Thankyou, this date marker was originally imported from an incorrect listing online, which had confused the date of Wales FoR with last year’s UK FoR held in Albert Hall. RBL Wales have since published the 2025 event details, which we have updated and linked to here. Thankyou for flagging up for us! ^ Craig
