Annual Remembrance Sunday ceremony with a wreath-laying at the Brighton War Memorial in Old Steine Gardens.
The Brighton Remembrance Sunday Parade and Service returns to the Brighton War Memorial in Old Steine Gardens on Sunday 8 November, the city's annual act of remembrance. It's a ceremony of wreaths and reflection that brings people together at the memorial, which sits in the gardens of the Old Steine, right in the heart of town.
The morning's proceedings centre on the wreath-laying ceremony, hosted by the Mayor of Brighton & Hove. It's the focal point of the service, with wreaths laid at the memorial by the Mayor and others, followed by a period of reflection. The parade itself leads into the service, so the whole thing flows from the march to the memorial and through to the ceremony.
