As we reported last month, Yoko Ono has planned a John Lennon memorial called the Imagine Peace Tower that will be unveiled in Reykjavik, Iceland, on October 9th, which would have been Lennon’s sixty-seventh birthday. The tower is a giant beam of light that will run each year between October 9th and December 8th, the date Lennon was killed in 1980. Check out the video above, which shows off the tower and features Ono explaining the original concept for the project from the Sixties, and visit the Imagine Peace site for information on how to be a part of the event.
