London remembers: King Charles leads Remembrance Sunday as thousands honour Britain’s fallen

King Charles led Remembrance Sunday ceremonies at the Cenotaph in London on November 8, 2026, as thousands of veterans gathered to honor those who died serving their country. The annual service began with a two-minute silence at 11am, followed by the Last Post and the laying of wreaths. This year's ceremony saw the presence of nine former prime ministers, around 10,000 veterans participating in the Royal British Legion's Cenotaph Parade, and the first appearance of some of Britain's last surviving World War II veterans.

London's black cab drivers also provided free transportation for veterans to and from the ceremony, ensuring no one was left behind.
