British Royal Family attends Trooping the Colour
On Saturday, members of the British Royal Family attended the traditional Trooping the Colour parade, the annual ceremonial event in honor of the official birthday of the British sovereign.
This impressive display of pageantry takes place annually on a Saturday in June, performed by His Majesty’s personal troops of the Household Division on Horse Guards Parade. Over 1,400 officers and soldiers form the parade, together with two hundred horses; over four hundred musicians from ten bands and Corps of Drums march and play in unison.
The streets are lined with crowds waving flags as the parade moves from Buckingham Palace and down The Mall to Horse Guard's Parade, alongside Members of the Royal Family on horseback and in carriages. The display closes with an RAF fly-past, watched by Members of the Royal Family from Buckingham Palace balcony.
