Liberation celebration - Wednesday, Sept. 17

This year on Wednesday, September 17, 2025 we will celebrate the 81st anniversary of the liberation of Son en Breugel. We will do this with a liberation celebration at the monument De Parachutist near the pond on the Europalaan.

Program

  • At 7 p.m. the ceremony will begin. During the ceremony, after the sounding of signal Tattoo, we will hold a minute of silence to remember the liberators. Then we thank the liberators by paying a floral tribute. The Bloaskaken make a musical contribution to this ceremony.
  • Around 6:30 p.m., Camp Liberty Sun vehicles will arrive on Europalaan. You can take a look at these vehicles before and after the ceremony.

Bring flower tributes of your own!

For the flower tribute, we ask everyone to bring a single flower. During the ceremony, anyone can lay a flower at the memorial.
