Annual Banquet - Mansion House

Friday 4th December 2026

Start: 6.30pm | Finish: 10.30pm

The most glittering event of the Guild’s calendar is the Annual Banquet in the magnificent surroundings of Mansion House, home of the Lord Mayor.  Members and their guests will be welcomed by the Master before enjoying a sparkling reception in the Salon interrupted by fanfare as our Patron, the Lord Mayor, Sheriffs and their consorts arrive to join us.
 
The formal announcement that Dinner is served will then lead onto a sumptuous four-course Dinner accompanied by excellent wines.  The whole evening will be one of colour and pageantry provided by the Pikemen and Musketeers from The Honourable Artillery Company, and a wonderful selection of music including the rousing Post Horn Galop, all of which combine to show the City, Mansion House and the Guild at their absolute best!
 
Why not celebrate the start of the festive season with a bang on the Friday evening and continue with a weekend in London.
