Quebec Dinner – 2026

by | Nov 12, 2026 | News

The annual Quebec Dinner was held on Saturday 12 September 2026 and thanks to the very generous sponsorship by Harvey’s Brewery it was once again held at our traditional venue, Lewes Town Hall. Sixty five members and guests sat down to an excellent three course meal, with musical accompaniment by the UK Veterans Show Band, led by bandmaster Ian Young, who played throughout the evening. The guests of honour were the President of the Queens Regimental Association and the outgoing Regimental Secretary of the Princess of Wales Royal Regimental Association. Also attending were QRA members from the Horsham Branch and an RAF officer from Eastbourne College Combined Cadet Force. The after dinner speaker was the historian and presenter Andrew Robertshaw whose subject appropriately was the Seven Years War – The first of Britain’s World Wars. An excellent event, well organised and enjoyed by all. Those Association and Branch members who were not in attendance missed a great evening. Make sure you put Saturday 11 September 2027 in your diary!
