The Legion organises the Festival of Remembrance on the Saturday before Remembrance Sunday. The Festival, held in the Royal Albert Hall, London, has acquired a status approaching that of a state event such as Trooping the Colour. Originally featuring composer John Foulds's World Requiem it includes military displays by current members of the armed forces, choral performances, and prayers. It culminates with the parading of Servicemen and Women down the aisles and onto the floor of the hall, and the release of poppy petals from the roof.

Huw Edwards presents the Royal British Legion's annual Festival of Remembrance from the Royal Albert Hall in London. In the presence of Her Majesty the Queen and members of the royal family, Emeli Sande, Tom Odell, Melanie C, Alfie Boe and Lesley Garrett perform alongside the Queen's Colour Squadron and the Band of HM Royal Marines. From the two World Wars to present-day conflict, the festival remembers all victims of war and those that made the ultimate sacrifice.
