Remembrance Day in Thailand: Sunday 10 November 2019
Sunday 10th November 2019 – Bangkok
The annual Remembrance Day Service organised by the British Embassy in Bangkok will be held in its new venue at The British Club Bangkok commencing at 10.50 hrs on Sunday 10th November. The event will not only commemorate British, Commonwealth, and allied personnel, but all those who have been affected in all conflicts. It serves as a reminder that nations who fought so bitterly against each other can come together to promote peace and stability in the modern world.
Wreaths will be laid at the re-located War Memorial by Ambassadors or their representatives, by War Veterans’ organisations and by representatives from associations and societies in Bangkok. Those attending the service on 10 November are asked to gather from 10.20 hrs.

If you wish to lay a wreath, they are available from the British Embassy for a donation of 1500 THB each. Please indicate on your response form if you require one. All funds raised will go to the Royal British Legion Poppy Appeal.
General parking is available at the Narai Hotel.
Please enter the British Club only through Silom Road, Soi 18.
Following the service, light refreshments will be served on the back lawn.
