# Battle of the Atlantic Memorial Ceremony

**Dates to be announced for 2026**

**Typically early May. **

A spring naval remembrance ceremony at the Naval Ships Memorial on the waterfront.

Halton naval veterans mark the Battle of the Atlantic each spring at the Naval Ships Memorial in Spencer Smith Park. The ceremony remembers the Canadians who served in the longest continuous campaign of the Second World War.

## Editions on record

One row per edition, each against the same year, so where in the calendar this event falls is visible rather than inferred. Editions are added, never overwritten — a year that was cancelled or did not run stays exactly where it was. This record begins with 2026; earlier editions may well have run, and are simply not yet sourced.
