Armistice Day Commemoration 2020 at Auckland Museum

Join Auckland Museum’s Armistice Day memorial service as we remember all those who served and those who have given their lives in military service.

The Great War of 1914 to 1918 (the First World War) was one of the most disastrous events in human history. New Zealand, with a population of 1.1 million in 1914, sent 100,000 men and women abroad. On this day that commemorates the signing of the WWI armistice, we will reflect on the sacrifices that were made in the hope of securing lasting peace.
