No. VE Day was the celebration of Victory in Europe ... - that is the Allied victory over Nazi Germany. None of the major celebrations was concerned with the liberation of concentration camps or extermination camps.
At that stage the Holocaust (as it is now called) was a bit of a 'non subject'. After all, contrary to a modern misunderstanding, the war was fought to defeat Germany and its Axis allies and was not primarily about saving and liberating victims. The memorialization of the Holocaust is a much more recent development.
