The Western Front Association's Armistice Day 2022 ceremony at the Cenotaph

Published on 11 November 2022

Every year, on 11 November, The Western Front Association holds a major commemoration event at the Cenotaph in London. This draws thousands of onlookers and is supported by the Ministry of Defence who participate in the two minutes silence.

For the first time ever, the WFA undertook to 'live stream' this so that members who were unable to attend 'in person' could watch proceedings. The video below shows the full ceremony. The video includes a number of pre-recorded 'packages' with those who were to take part in the ceremony.
