The streets of London will be filled with music and entertainment to welcome the 695th lord mayor of London. Before the parade steps off, Armistice Day will be marked at 11am with the national silence, which will be observed by the crowds and procession participants, including nearly 2,000 troops from all branches of the armed forces.

Presenter Scott Mills will be joined by military expert Brigadier Greville Bibby, and reporter Mwaka Mudenda will be on the route, speaking to those taking part, to share the excitement of the world’s longest, unrehearsed parade. Show less
