JUNE 14
TROOPING THE COLOUR
At Britain's best-known annual display of pomp and ceremony, Massed Bands and Troops of the Foot Guards and Household Cavalry take over Horse Guards Parade in Whitehall to celebrate Queen Elizabeth II's birthday.
Crowds line the flag-filled Mall to goggle at cavalry divisions on perfectly-groomed steeds parading around St. James' Park in central London to salute the queen. The tradition dates back to 1748 and since Edward VII's reign the sovereign has taken the salute in person. Returning to Buckingham Palace, Queen Elizabeth appears on the balcony to watch Britain's Royal Air force fly past as the guns salute her from the Tower of London.
Queen Elizabeth leaves Buckingham Palace at 10:40 a.m., the parade starts 11 a.m., Horse Guards Parade. www.army.mod.uk/ceremonialandheritage/household/trooping.htm.
