The National Christchurch Memorial Service offered people the opportunity to reflect on recent events and remember the loss of New Zealanders and citizens of other countries.
The service offers the opportunity to thank all those involved in the rescue response and acknowledge the efforts of all others who have contributed in working towards the recovery.
HRH Prince William, Prime Minister John Key, the Governor-General Sir Anand Satyanand, the Mayor of Christchurch Bob Parker and other dignitaries were at the service to pay special tribute to the people of Christchurch and all families who have lost loved ones.
The service was broadcast live on TVNZ.co.nz which is where this clip was captured from.
