Attend the Honourable Artillery Company open evening

City of London reservists the Honourable Artillery Company are the second oldest military organisation in the world, the oldest surviving regiment in the British Army and an important part of the British Army Reserve. Usually a rather private bunch, tonight the Company throws open its doors from 5pm until 9pm, in an annual event which seeks to raise awareness of its existence and encourage new recruits.


The evening offers the chance to watch military displays with gunfire, enjoy a free barbecue, see a parachute drop, observe displays from the Royal Signals Motorcycle Display Team, listen to music from the Band and Corps of Drums of the Honourable Artillery Company and visit a secret museum and enjoy a pint at the Company's HQ, Armoury House, and (apart from the pint) it's absolutely free.
