In short

The 2008 Lord Mayor's Show was on Saturday 8 November. The procession lasts from 11am to about 2.30pm and fills the whole area between Bank and Aldwych. There are guided walks at 3 and the day ends with fireworks at 5 over the Thames.

Take part!

If you'd like to take part in next year's Show, please get in touch with the Pageantmaster's office soon. It's a fantastic way to boost your profile, raise morale and do something for charity all at once, and the procession is usually full by late spring.

Credits

This site has been built and managed by spanner since its launch in 1996, and currently runs on a modified version of radiant and rails.
