Participate in UBC's Remembrance Day ceremony

November 3, 2025

Since the opening of the War Memorial Gym in 1951, The University of British Columbia has held a ceremony commemorating November 11. 

This year, 2025 will mark seventy-five years that The University of British Columbia has hosted a Remembrance Day ceremony. This special ceremony is an opportunity for faculty, staff, students and members of the on and off-campus community to honour and remember all those who served in times of war, military conflict and peace.

This year’s ceremony will include participation and recognition of UBC’s Vancouver campus and will feature short readings and remarks from special guests.

During this week, hundreds of commemorative ceremonies and events will take place across the country to recognize the achievements of our Veterans and honour those who made the ultimate sacrifice. UBC Okanagan faculty and staff are encouraged to attend a ceremony in their local community.
