Lord Mayor’s Show and Fireworks – Lighting Up the Night’s Sky

The world renowned Lord Mayor’s Show concluded on 12th November with a spectacular display of fireworks that illuminated London’s sky over the Thames, in a multitude of brilliant sparks. The firework display concluded the Lord Mayor’s show which marked the start of a new mayoral year for London and its citizens. The spectacular show was visible from the South Bank and the Victoria embankment. A splendid procession and the Lord Mayor’s arrival on a ceremonial flotilla followed the fireworks display. If you are interested in catching a glimpse of this very English and traditional show next year, consider booking a London boutique hotel that is centrally located such as COMO The Halkin, London. This show dates back centuries when King John allowed London’s inhabitants the chance to choose their own mayor. Ever since then, the brand new Mayor of London parades the city annually to show his allegiance to the crown.
