About this event
Holocaust Memorial Day (HMD) takes place every year on 27 January. It is a national day of commemoration for the six million Jewish men, women, and children murdered during the Holocaust, as well as the millions killed in subsequent genocides in Cambodia, Rwanda, Bosnia, and Darfur. HMD is an opportunity for communities across the UK to come together to remember, reflect, and learn.
The theme for HMD 2026, “Bridging Generations,” highlights the importance of passing on the testimonies and lessons of the Holocaust to younger generations. It encourages us to engage with the past and take action to ensure that its lessons continue to guide us today.
