BATTLE OF BRITAIN 70TH ANNIVERSARY UK TOUR
“THEIR FINEST HOUR”
Flying its way across the country this July and August, the Battle of Britain 70th
anniversary tour in support of the RAF Benevolent Fund, will feature ‘forces songbird’
Hayley Westenra and the Central Band, Regiment Band, and College Band of the RAF
performing a nostalgic evening of the most popular music from the war
years. The evening will include songs and music such as "We'll Meet Again, Dam
Busters, Aces High, 633 Squadron, Nimrod, and Those Magnificent Men in their Flying
Machines", and will be accompanied by inspirational speeches from the time,
poems, and narration from a member of Dame Vera Lynn's family, RAF Squadron
Leader Tom Jones.
Speaking about the tour Hayley said
“It is a great honour and privilege to be singing at the Battle of Britain concerts. To be involved
in commemorating the sacrifice and courage of the men and women who fought to protect
freedom is a wonderful opportunity. I am really looking forward to the concerts which will
undoubtedly be very special occasions”
This moving tribute to our servicemen and women will allow audiences throughout the
UK to step back into British history and celebrate the bravery, sacrifice and freedom that
helped define generations to come.
