The military fly past passes over The Mall and Buckingham Palace and the Royal Family attend celebrations for the 80th anniversary of VE Day, in honour of those who served during the Second World War, in London, England. Around 1300 members of the armed forces, including the Royal Navy, the Royal Marines, the British Army and the Royal Air Force, along with Commonwealth nations, Ukraine, and Nato allies are taking part in the military procession for Victory in Europe Day, which is celebrated each year on May 8, marking the day the Allies formally accepted Germany's surrender in 1945. l May 5, 2025 l Photo by Andrew Matthews + Carl Court - @ Carl Court + Jordan Pettitt + Chris Jackson - chrisjacksongetty l #GettyImagesNews #VEDay ##veday80
