Ceramic poppies return to Tower of London to mark WWII end

Ceramic poppies will return to the Tower of London in a new commemorative display marking 80 years since the end of the Second World War.

Opening on 6 May 2025 and running through to Armistice Day in November, the display will feature nearly 30,000 ceramic poppies from the original 2014 installation, ‘Blood Swept Lands and Seas of Red’.

The artwork transformed the Tower’s moat into a sea of red, attracting more than five million visitors and becoming a national site of remembrance.
