Company Pancake Races in the Guildhall of London on Pancake Day on Shrove Tuesday

---

Poulters Company Pancake Races Dozens of teams representing the livery companies of Guildhall will be running and tossing pancakes in a series of traditional Pancake Day races in the seventh annual Poulters Company Shrove Tuesday event. Spectators are welcome to cheer on their favourite teams, with everyone from carriage drivers to butchers and chartered accountants to glovers competing for glory. Heats lead up to four separate finals, where teams of four will battle it out for a prize copper pancake pan. There's also a wooden spoon race for the underdogs. The Poulters Company Pancake Races take place from 12pm on Tuesday 8th March.
