Guildford
Saturday, 10th November 2018 - 7.30 pm - GLive
As the nation commemorates the end of the Great War, Guildford is playing its part in honouring those who served,
sacrificed and changed our world, in this, and all conflicts.
At the heart of the Borough’s commemoration programme, GUILDFORD REMEMBERS, Vivace Chorus is promoting
A Concert for Peace at GLive, the focus for our local community. Vivace will be joined by HM Lord-Lieutenant of
Surrey, Dame Penelope Keith, the Friary Brass Band and a range of military and civic organisations together with
representatives from the Royal British Legion, for which there will be a collection.
The evening concert will feature music and readings, with a colour parade, and culminate with a spectacular poppy
drop. There will also be a wide range of events throughout the day, providing the perfect way for the Guildford
community to come together to remember the fallen, the sacrifices and the lessons they have taught us all.
