The Lord Mayors Show

The next Lord Mayor's Show is this Saturday, on 13th November 201,0 and will start at 11am.The modern procession is over three miles long – almost twice as long as the route it follows – and starts at 11am. It travels from Mansion House to the Royal Courts of Justice, where the Lord Mayor takes an oath of allegiance to the sovereign before the Lord Chief Justice and the judges of the Queen's Bench Division.

The procession sets off on the return journey from Victoria Embankment to Mansion House at 1pm and returns to Mansion House at about 2.30, then the day finishes with one of London's grandest firework displays at 5 o'clock from a barge moored in the Thames between Blackfriars and Waterloo bridges.

It's a full day out for the family, with lots to do and see.Book your London Hotel for this 880 year old tradition.
