Poppies on the Pier
5–23 November 2025 / 10:15am – 5pm
This November, Southend Pier will be transformed into a moving sea of red as thousands of knitted and crocheted poppies are installed along its full 1.33-mile length. Poppies on the Pier is set to be the UK’s largest Remembrance art installation, created entirely from handmade poppies donated by people from across the world.
