THE MASSED BANDS OF HM ROYAL MARINES BEATING RETREAT

A spectacular evening of outstanding military music and pageantry, featuring over 200 of the world’s finest military musicians, the precision drill of the 40 strong Corps of Drums and a 100 strong Royal Marines Guard of Honour. This historic parade, including the emotive Naval Sunset ceremony, is performed on Horse Guards Parade in front of the beautiful backdrop of St James’s Park. Following the success of this event in 2022, the more intimate layout will be used once again, enabling the audience in all seating areas to get a close up view of the parade as it unfolds in front of them.
