Best Answer

VE Day (or, more properly, V-E Day) was and still is a celebration of the Victory in Europe during World War II. It is celebrated on 8 May, since 8 May 1945 was the date the Allied Forces accepted the unconditional surrender of the Axis powers in Europe.

Related is V-J Day (Celebration of the unconditional surrender of the Japanese forces) which is celebrated at different days in different countries.
