Join in the Canterbury Earthquake National Memorial Dedication
The Canterbury Earthquake National Memorial will be unveiled on 22 February 2017 to mark the sixth anniversary of the devastating earthquakes. The public event will combine the Dedication of the Memorial and the 22 February Civic Commemoration Service.
The Memorial will be a place for people to reflect on the earthquakes that changed Canterbury and its communities forever, honouring those who lost their lives on 22 February 2011, acknowledging those who were seriously injured and everyone who helped in the rescue and recovery operation. Everyone is invited to share in remembering, and give thanks for the love and support that Canterbury and its communities received.
Join in the Canterbury Earthquake National Memorial Dedication and Civic Commemoration Event and live stream. 12 noon at the Memorial site in between Durham Street and the Montreal Street Bridge. Find out more.
