The Corporation of London changed its name to the City of London Corporation in 2006, and accordingly the title Lord Mayor of the City of London was introduced, so as to avoid confusion with the Mayor of London. However, the legal and commonly used title remains "Lord Mayor of London". The Lord Mayor is elected at "Common Hall" each year on Michaelmas, and takes office on the Friday before the second Saturday in November, at "The Silent Ceremony". The Lord Mayor's Show is held on the day after taking office; the Lord Mayor, preceded by a procession, travels to the Royal Courts of Justice at the Strand to swear allegiance to the sovereign before the Justices of the High Court.
