Traditions of the British Monarchy

The Changing of the Guard is an iconic display of British pageantry. This military ceremony, accompanied by a band, involves the ‘Old Guard’ formally handing over responsibility to the ‘New Guard’ for protecting the royal residences. The King’s Guard, instantly recognisable in their red tunics and bearskin hats, marching with precision, will delight adults and children alike.
