The community of Battle is invited to gather for the annual Act of Remembrance this Wednesday, 11 November 2026, at Abbey Green on Battle High Street, to honour those lost in conflict.

The ceremony, organised by Battle Town Council, will commence at 10:30am with a gathering on Abbey Green. It will feature readings, poetry, and music, with contributions from local schools and representatives of the Council and Youth Forum.
At 11:00am, a two-minute silence will be observed, marked by a maroon fired by the Battel Bonfire Boyes. The Last Post will be played on a bugle, followed by a second maroon to signal the end of the silence, concluding with the Reveille.
