The 1860 Club and The Queen’s Own Rifles of Canada cordially invite you to the 2nd Annual Gala Dinner at Casa Loma in commemoration of the 79th anniversary of D-Day.

The D-Day Dinner will serve as the official launch of the D+80 Fundraising Campaign, which aims to send 65 Riflemen to Normandy for the 80th Anniversary of the D-Day landings. The Regiment was in the first wave of assault troops on Juno Beach, Normandy, in 1944, and suffered the highest casualties among the Canadian regiments with 143 casualties—including 61 killed in action.

Casa Loma was built by our 8th Commanding Officer, Major-General Sir Henry Pellatt, and is home to the Regiment’s Museum and Archives. This exclusive event will commence with a cocktail reception, followed by a 4-course dinner in the Library, curated by the Liberty Group. The evening will feature performances throughout from the Regimental Band.
