HUNDREDS of John Lennon fans held a vigil for the singer at the Liverpool monument in his honour.
The 30th anniversary of the musician’s death was remembered with his songs and poetry readings at Chavasse Park.
Candles, glow sticks, flowers and placards were held aloft as the crowd joined in renditions of Imagine and Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds.
The European Peace Monument was the focal point for yesterday’s celebrations to remember The Beatles star, who was shot dead by Mark Chapman at the age of 40.
The evening’s events mirrored the spontaneous vigil held on December 8, 1980, on St George’s Plateau, when 20,000 people sang together in his memory.
Frank Walker, 48, from Speke, was at Chavasse Park.
He said: “I’m here because it’s for John Lennon, because he was just wonderful and everything he stood for.
“I was out 30 years ago when he died. It was tremendous, it really was.
