The service this year is held at the Guards Memorial on Horse Guards Parade. It has been held annually in Westminster, London since 1934.
Belgium is the only non-Commonwealth country to be afforded the honour of holding their national act of Remembrance in London - an honour bestowed on them by King George V.
