Manchester is to fall silent as the city “remembers the fallen” during the annual Remembrance Sunday commemorations this weekend.
Just as it does each year, Manchester City Council has now revealed the details of how the city will mark Remembrance Sunday this weekend, and has confirmed that the annual Remembrance Sunday Parade will set off at 10:25am from John Dalton Street.
The Parade will then march from John Dalton Street to the Cenotaph in St. Peter’s Square.
Civic dignitaries, servicemen and women, service and ex-service organisations, faith leaders, emergency services, and other uniformed organisations have been invited to pay their respects at the Cenotaph in St. Peter’s Square, along with members of the public.
Then at 11am, there will be a two-minute silence.
The start and finish of the traditional silence will be marked by the firing of a 105mm gun, Manchester City Council has confirmed.

“Remembrance Sunday gives us an opportunity to reflect on past and present conflicts,” said Lord Mayor of Manchester, Councillor Donna Ludford, ahead of this Sunday’s commemoration.
“It also gives us all a chance to express our respects and think of those who have fought for our country.
“It will be an honour to meet with members of the armed services, faith leaders and the people of Manchester on Sunday and, together, we can mark this solemn day.”
The Remembrance Sunday event will be live streamed on Facebook.
After the Parade has left the Cenotaph, the crowd control barriers will be removed and members of the public will have an opportunity to place their tributes around the memorial, Manchester City Council has confirmed.

The new venue is also launching a partnership with sports equipment brand TaylorMade, so golf fans can either bring their own clubs to use on the day, or make use of TaylorMade equipment available if needed.
Resident PGA professionals will offer personalised lessons with AI-driven video analysis when the venue opens later this year, while a dedicated club fitter will make sure every swing is matched with the right equipment.
There’ll also be a club shop stocking TaylorMade gear alongside apparel from Manchester-based brand, Concrete Links Co.

Last week, Florence released the album’s title track, ahead of the album’s release on 31 October. She’s worked for two years on this new music, calling on collaborators including Mark Bowen of IDLES, Aaron Dessner and Mitski.
She has said that this new album explores womanhood, partnership, aging and dying, inspired by her recovery from lifesaving surgery on the Dance Fever Tour.
Big hits of Florence + The Machine’s discography include You’ve Got The Love, Shake It Out, and Spectrum (Say My Name), and she’s collaborated with the likes of Taylor Swift, The Rolling Stones, and Lady Gaga.
