Click here for more history and information. Each autumn Liverymen elect the next year’s Lord Mayor and every summer, it’s the turn of the two Sheriffs. After Common Hall, many Liveries go home, but the Master Chartered Accountant hosts a private Reception and Lunch in the Aldermen's Dining Room. We go up to Guildhall’s roof terrace on the fourth floor for the Reception and then into the Dining Room for lunch. Partners and guests are very welcome and will be able to have coffee and explore the Guildhall Gallery while Liverymen are attending the Election Ceremony. 11.30am - Coffee 11.45am - All attending the Election Ceremony must be seated 12noon - Shrieval Election Ceremony 12.45pm - Drinks in the Aldermen's Dining Room 1.30pm - Lunch in the Aldermen's Dining Room Dress: lounge suit or smart day wear Tickets: £89

Since 1973, Orchestral Masses had been a well-established annual feature of choral worship at St Paul’s Cathedral. The Masses stopped during the lockdown and the lack of tourist income meant the Cathedral was not in a position to reintroduce them immediately. The Charity Trustees have made a donation to St Paul’s for a couple of years now, which has enabled them to introduce Orchestral Masses to their regular programme again. This year, members and guests are invited to attend the Orchestral Mass held under the Dome of St Paul’s, as part of the Sunday morning Eucharist, on Sunday 30th June at 11:15am. There is no charge although contributions to St Paul’s would be welcome. After the Mass the team at St Paul’s have invited representatives from the Company to join them for pre-lunchtime drinks in the Chapter House, so that they may express their gratitude for the Charity’s support. You are welcome to join us for lunch at Cote afterwards – places for lunch are limited to 20.
