Every year the Lodge has an installation ceremony. This is when an officer is officially placed in the seat representing the office of which he has been elected by the bretheren, or appointed by the Worshipful Master. Officers usually serve in their positions for at least one year.
The Installation Ceremony is a big event on the Lodge's calendar, as it is an opportunity to give thanks to the outgoing Master for all his hard work, to give best wishes to his successor, and to pledge the support of the brethren of the new 'team'.
The table below shows meeting days and installation dates of all Lodges operating in Bermuda. These meetings are 'closed', meaning only Masons may attend. In other jurisdictions, parts of the ceremony is open for the general public to attend.
