SUMMARY:King's Birthday Parade
DESCRIPTION:Not a Branch organised event\, but is advertised here as it is an event of great military interest. \nWe have received confirmation that the date for the King’s Birthday Parade (Trooping the Colour) is Saturday 13 June 2026. \nTrooping the Colour is an annual event that has marked the sovereign’s official birthday for two-and-a-half centuries. Upholding the tradition\, His Majesty King Charles III\, who was born on November 14 1948\, will celebrate his birthday twice. Once on his actual birthday and then publicly at Trooping The Colour in June.  Each Regiment has a Colonel who is either a member of the Royal Family or a senior officer. \nThe Grenadier Guards will Troop their Colour in the presence of His Majesty The King. \nThe parade has historically featured more than 1\,400 parading soldiers\, 200 horses and 400 musicians. Beginning at Buckingham Palace\, the Parade moved down The Mall to Horse Guard’s Parade\, where it was joined by Members of the Royal Family on horseback and in carriages. The Parade closed with the traditional RAF fly-past\, watched by The Monarch and Members of the Royal Family from the Buckingham Palace balcony. \nPlease go to www.kbp.army.mod.uk to purchase your tickets to the Major General’s Review and the Colonel’s Review. These are likely to be on sale from February 2026 onwards. \nTickets for the King’s Birthday Parade are extremely popular and are therefore usually allocated via a ballot. To enter the ballot so that you may purchase tickets\, please visit that same www.kbp.army.mod.uk URL.  These tickets sell out very fast.

SUMMARY:Armed Forces Day (UK Wide)
DESCRIPTION:This is the date of the National Armed Forces Day. \nArmed Forces Day (formerly known as Veterans’ Day) in the United Kingdom is an annual event celebrated in late June.  It commemorates the service of men and women in the British Armed Forces.  The day was first observed in 2006 as Veterans’ Day\, with a focus on honouring living ex-servicemen and women.  In 2009\, the name was changed to Armed Forces Day.  The date was chosen to coincide with the anniversary of the first investiture of the Victoria Cross in 1857. \nPlease visit Armed Forces Day for further details
