Date : 09 Nov 2019


Description:

The Lord Mayor's Show is one of the best known events in london as well as one of the longest established, dating back to the 16th century. A new lord mayor is appointed every year, and the public parade that takes place at his or her inauguration ceremony reflects that this was once one of the most prominent offices in England.   

Over 6000 people take part and this year the band were one of twenty-one bands taking part. The route is 3 miles long beginning at Mansion House and finishing at the Royal Courts of Justice and takes about 75 minutes to complete. After a short break the parade returns to Mansion House via the Embankment and Queen Victoria Street.
