The Festival of Remembrance is a separate event to Remembrance Day and is usually held on the second Saturday in November every year. It is a traditional British ceremony that honours the sacrifices made by members of the military and their families in conflicts past and present. The festival is typically held at the Royal Albert Hall in London and features performances by military bands, choirs, and famous musicians. It is attended by members of the royal family, politicians, military leaders, and veterans. The event includes a two-minute silence to remember those who have lost their lives in service, and a poppy drop to symbolise the fallen. The Festival of Remembrance is a moving tribute to those who have made the ultimate sacrifice in the service of their country.
