UN Holocaust Remembrance Day - Wellington Public Ceremony

This is a free public commemoration acknowledging the United Nations International Holocaust Remembrance Day and the 75th Anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau and other camps.

Join survivors and other distinguished guests as we hear speeches, prayers, light a candle and lay stones, remembering not only the horrors but also the fortitude of survivors and proclaim never again.
