Lord Mayor’s Show

The Lord Mayor’s Show is one of the best-known annual events in London as well as one of the longest-established, dating back to the 13th century and St Bride’s on Fleet Street is a great spot from which to watch the procession go by.

Every year here at St Bride’s we open our doors and offer a warm welcome, shelter, and refreshments to all visitors to the Show.

This year the Show takes place on Saturday 14th November, so please spread the word and join us between 10:30am and 2:30pm for hot drinks and cake to raise funds for the church.

You can find details about travel on the day on the Show’s website here.

We offer our congratulations to Alderman Bronek Masojada who will become the 698th Lord Mayor of London at the Silent Ceremony at Guildhall the day before the procession.

 
150 floats will take part in a three mile-long procession to mark the Lord Mayor’s first full day in office.

The processions departs from Mansion House at 11am and journeys to the Royal Courts by way of St Paul’s, Cheapside and Fleet Street, right past our doors.

It’s a wonderful event with a fabulous atmosphere which the organisers affectionately describe as “the oldest, longest, best loved and least-rehearsed civic procession in the world!”

We look forward to seeing you for what promises, as always, to be a great day out for all the family!
