The Election Court (conventionally the last Thursday in June) is one of Company’s statutory meetings, at which the Court elects those members of the Court who will serve as Master and Wardens from the following November. Although it is customary that each of the serving Wardens is promoted to the next most senior office, any full member of the Court may be elected to serve. A Nominations sits ahead of the Court meeting to review candidates for the role of Junior Warden, and it makes a recommendation to the Court as to who to elect.
 
The Court consists of the Master, three Wardens, the five most recent Past Masters, and between six and twenty Freemen Entrepreneurs who sit as Assistants. Assistants are elected to serve for a term of three years each. The Treasurer is a voting member of Court, and is appointed for a two-year term.
 
A formal announcement of those elected is made at the Election Court Banquet, which takes place later in the Summer.
