  Exeter during the blitz
Exeter Remembers: 80 Years Since VE Day and the Blitz
This May, Exeter will commemorate the 80th anniversary of Victory in Europe (VE) Day with special events that look back at the devastation of war and the joy of its end.
Events will serve as a reminder of how the city was scarred, shaped, and ultimately strengthened by the Second World War.
Two standout events led by Exeter’s Red Coat Guides will help residents and visitors alike step back into the past to reflect on those turbulent years and how they forged the spirit of the city as it is today.
