Over 800 people attended a special ceremony to mark the anniversary of the end of conflict in Europe eighty years ago.
The VE Day commemoration began with 200 young cadets parading from King’s Lynn Town Hall, along the Quayside and into the square. They were then inspected by the Mayor of King’s Lynn & West Norfolk, Paul Bland, along with other dignitaries.
Entertainment was provided on stage in King’s Staithe Square by the Marham Military Wives Choir and Ashlea Lauren afterwards.
The beacon and peace lamp were then lit by the Mayor at 9:30pm at the same time as they were lit across the country.
