The City Livery Club

The City Livery Club was founded in 1914 and is privileged to count the Rt. Hon. The Lord Mayor as Patron and HRH The Princess Royal as an Honorary Member. His late Royal Highness The Duke of Edinburgh was also an Honorary Member. The Club offers a private daytime Club for Liverymen and members of related City organisations where they can meet, dine, and exchange views in heritage premises close to the Tower of London and within easy distance of Mansion House and Guildhall.

The Club also provides a broad programme of events both formal and informal, with various special interest “Sections” for History & Antiques, Investments, Motoring, Music, Wine, Golf, Aero, Photography, Under 40s and Women in the Livery.

A series of “City Face2Face talks” by VIPs e.g. both our current Sheriffs are informal discussions with City movers and shakers.

The Club has a number of reciprocal arrangements with other fine Clubs in London, across the UK and around the world.

HRH The Princess Royal KG KT GCVO QSO was principal guest at the Annual Civic Luncheon of the City Livery Club which was held at Carpenters’ Hall on Wednesday 7th July 2021.

The event was attended by Club Officers and Members, the Lord Mayor of the City of London, Civic representatives, and previous winners of the Club’s prestigious Root & Branch Award, established in 2014.

In recognition of her long involvement with several of the Livery Companies of the City of London, Her Royal Highness was presented with the 2020 Lifetime Achievement Award.

HRH The Princess Royal is a member or honorary member of no less than 11 City Livery Companies and has served as Master or Prime Warden of 9 of them. Her “Mother Company” is the Farriers, where she became the second only female Master of any Livery Company in 1984/5. Since then she has served as Master of the Carmen,  Loriners, Woolmen, Farmers, Master Mariners, Butchers, Saddlers and most recently as Prime Warden of the Fishmongers in 2017/8.
