YOM HASHOAH 2025

Please note bookings will close at 2:00 pm on Sunday, 27 April.

‘What Keeps Us Together’, will explore the resilience of Jewish traditions, before, during and after the Holocaust. Our Jewish symbols and traditions have guided generations, even in the face of hardship. Before the Holocaust, Jewish life in Europe flourished. Systematic persecution of Jews aimed to erase and eradicate Jewish culture and traditions. Despite the immeasurable loss and destruction left in the wake of the Holocaust, these traditions have endured and been reignited, along with the light of Jewish life.

Today's generation is witnessing antisemitism on a scale we have never seen before, and this commemoration will be a reminder that we cannot stay silent. Stand with us as we honour the strength of Jewish identity and reflect on the resilience of Holocaust survivors. We invite you to stand with us—to honour those who perished in the Holocaust, draw strength from the voices and stories of Survivors, and ensure that "Never Again" is not just a promise but a reality.
