Dressed in their full regalia, the members of the related Liveries of London compete in this pancake-flipping race.
Crowds gather to watch the race for the crown in Guildhall Yard. Organised by the Poulters (egg suppliers), the event employs the skills of a variety of liveries: Clockmakers time it, Gunmakers fire the starting pistol, Glovers provide the white gloves worn by racers, the Fruiterers provide lemons and the Cutlers provide the forks!
This is a really fun event, with 30 teams competing in their traditional robes. Which guild will win the coveted frying pan trophy?
