VETERANS CANDLELIGHT TRIBUTE
Thursday, May 31 | 6:30 p.m.
Marking the 100th anniversary of our Naval-based town - and 95 years since the Battle of Vimy Ridge - the annual Veterans Candlelight Tribute is an important commemoration of our legacy.
Each spring the Royal Canadian Legion, Esquimalt Dockyard Branch, holds a special ceremony to remember those who served in the cause of peace and freedom. Everyone is welcome to gather in the flicker of candlelight and reflect on the legacy and the future of military service. VCC Choristers are honoured to bring a special touch to this important occasion.
