The eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month marks the signing of the Armistice to signal the end of World War One — “the War to end all Wars” — on the 11th November 1918.

The occasion will be commemorated with a ceremony in the Lobby of Parliament House. The two-minute silence will be marked by the firing of a gun by the Royal Gibraltar Regiment at 1100hrs. A Bugler will then sound the Last Post and His Excellency the Governor, other dignitaries and invited attendees will lay wreaths.

Deputy Mayor, Mr Nicholas Guerrero, will be leading the ceremony. Guards of Honour will be provided by the Royal Gibraltar Regiment and the Royal British Legion Gibraltar Branch.
