The Council is holding a weekend of events to celebrate becoming a Royal Borough.

On Friday, General Gordon Square will be hosting festivities from 4.30pm, with marquees on the square, roving entertainers and winter warmer drinks.

At 6.30pm, Councillor Chris Roberts, the Leader of Greenwich Council, will welcome people to the Royal Borough with a short speech ahead of the highlight of the evening - a spectacular firework display set to music.

The event will end at approximately 7pm.
