About This Event

The Day the World Came to Town by Jim Defede is the story of what happened when the United States air space was closed and 38 jet liners were forced to land in Gander, Newfoundland on September 11, 2001. The citizens of this small community and surrounding towns were called upon to care for thousands of distraught travelers. This is the inspiring story of how a town of barely 10,000 cared for nearly 7,000 passengers with gestures of friendship, acts of kindness, and attitudes of goodwill at a moment’s notice.
