On the Thursday prior to the Remembrance Sunday the Royal British Legion, along with the Poppy Factory, hold the offical opening of the Field of Remembrance , located in the grounds of Westminster Abbey. This event is usually attended by a member of the Royal Family. The Association usually offers tickets to members, but unfortunately, due to Westminster Abbey undergoing construction work tickets are restricted to four per association. The impact of this is that there are only two tickets available to association members which are offer on a “first come, first served” basis. You must be inside the Abbey gardens by 10:30 am at the latest, but be aware you should allow at least another 45 minutes queuing to pass through the police security check. Allow plenty of time to avoid disappointment! If you are unsuccessful to get a ticket you can still attend, albeit from outside the Abbey gardens. The opening ceremony start at 10:55am ready for the sounding of "Last Post" at 11:00am. Following the opening ceremony, the association will hold a lunch at the Westminster Kingsway College (catering college). This is open to 30 association members, again on a “first come, first served” basis. The lunch will be a three-course lunch with each course paired with a wine at a cost of £30 per head. All cooked and served by the students and staff of the number one catering college and is extremely good value. If you wish to attend, please be in the collage bar by 12:45 for lunch at 13:00pm. Please allow time to deposit coats and visit the toilet beforehand.
