Pubgoers planning to celebrate the 80th anniversary of VE Day next month are in for a treat. This is because pubs will soon be allowed to stay open later on to mark the historic day. The Prime Minister has ordered that pubs and bars that usually close at 11pm can keep serving for an extra two hours on Thursday, May 8. The long night of celebrations will cap off a week of commemorative events 80 years after the Second World War came to an end on May 8, 1945.
