Town hall illumination will ‘light the darkness’ on Holocaust Memorial Day THE tower of Wallasey town hall will be illuminated in purple as a small symbol of lighting the darkness tonight to mark Holocaust Memorial Day. The commemoration takes place on January 27 every year as it marks the anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz-Birkenau death camp in Nazi-occupied Poland. The theme for this year s commemorations is be the light in the darkness , which asks everyone to consider the different kinds of darkness , which can include identity-based persecution, misinformation and the denial of justice. The theme also calls on people to consider the different ways of being the light through, for example, resistance, acts of solidarity, rescue and highlighting mistruths.
