Eighty years ago, on May 8, 1945, the guns of war finally fell silent across Europe - and millions flooded the streets in wild celebrations. Victory in Europe Day - VE Day - marked the end of one of the darkest chapters in human history, and the first day of peace after six long and bloody years of war.
To mark the historic 80th anniversary, the Daily dives into the drama, joy, relief, and heartbreak of that unforgettable day. From bombed-out Britain to the frontlines of Europe and beyond, we bring you real life stories, exclusive interviews, rare photos and powerful memories as we salute the heroes who fought for our freedom and honour our greatest generation.
Our exclusive series of pullouts starts inside the Daily Mirror on Monday, April 28.
