This evening, May 6, dozens of London landmarks will be lit up to mark the 80th anniversary of VE Day.

Buildings, monuments, and attractions across England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland, and the Channel Islands will shine red, white, and blue.

The displays will take place at 9pm and will see the likes of London Bridge, Buckingham Palace, and The Shard mark the occasion.
