It opens with a quiet reflection at the Crest Farm Canadian Memorial, followed by a torchlight procession along the Canadalaan. The route follows the last hundred metres of the attack and ends at Passchendaele church. Afterwards, all participants are invited to an open-air reception with refreshments in the square opposite the church from 8pm.

  • No registration required

  • Torches are provided for the procession

  • Parking in the surrounding streets (not near the memorial or in the Canadalaan)
