🇹🇭 King Maha Vajiralongkorn (Rama X) & Queen Suthida proceed by Royal Barge to Wat Arun Ratchawararam Ratchaworamahawihan (Temple of Dawn) to preside over the Royal Kathin Robe-Offering Ceremony for the year B.E. 2569 (2026).
The Ceremony is held on the Auspicious Occasion of the Celebration of Queen Suthida’s 4th Cycle (48th) Birthday Anniversary on 3 June 2026.
The Field of Remembrance has been organised by The Poppy Factory & held in the grounds of Westminster Abbey since November 1928, to commemorate those who have lost their lives serving in the Armed Forces.
Ex-service personal, as well as members of the public, can plant a cross or a symbol carrying a personal message in memory of those who have lost their lives in the service of others. This year there are 234 plots including new plots to represent the Lisbon Maru Memorial Association, Association of Royal Navy Officers, Maritime Reserves, General Service Corps Association & Royal Army Medical Services.
The Poppy Factory supports veterans & families on the path to employment. Each year its specialist employment services help more than 1,200 veterans & their families in England & Wales to feel healthier, more independent & better connected. The Poppy Factory’s employment support began at its factory in Richmond upon Thames, where members of the production team have been making Remembrance wreaths for The Royal British Legion & the Royal Family since 1922.
