Watford will unite in remembrance on Sunday 8 November 2026, paying tribute to the generations of servicemen and women who have served their country and remembering those who made the ultimate sacrifice.
From those who left their homes and families to serve during the First and Second World Wars to the men and women serving in the Armed Forces today, Watford has a proud and enduring connection to Britain’s military history.
The town’s main Remembrance Sunday ceremony will take place at 3pm on Sunday 8 November at the Peace Memorial outside Watford Town Hall.
As part of this year’s commemorations, striking silhouette figures of First World War soldiers, known as ‘Tommies’, will once again be displayed at locations across Watford.
