LORD MAYOR'S SHOW DAY - 10 NOVEMBER 2024

Members, their families and other Livery Companies were invited to a two-course buffet lunch after what has been termed:"the greatest free show on earth". This gave the perfect opportunity for all family members of those connected with Livery Companies, especially children and grandchildren, to experience Stationers’ Hall before and after the fabulous display of the Lord Mayor’s procession - bands, horsemen, coaches, soldiers and many exciting floats and entertainers.

The Hall wasopen from 10.15 am to 11.00 am for coffee, tea and biscuits. Ludgate Hill and the vicinity of St Paul’s Cathedral offered a good standing view of the procession, which starts to pass by at about 11.15 am. At 12.15 pm the Lord Mayor’s coach paused at St Paul’s for a blessing on the steps of the Cathedral, after which the Lord Mayor moved down Ludgate Hill on his way to the Royal Courts in the Strand.

At 12.30 pm a two-course hot buffet lunch was served in the Hall, together with a glass of wine (soft drinks for children). 

Entertainment was provided in the form of a magician and a fabulous raffle.
