The military ceremony of Beating Retreat has its origins on the early battlefields where the drum was used for all signals. Beating Retreat was the signal for troops to disengage from combat as the light faded.
The Massed Bands of Her Majesty’s Royal Marines perform their Beating Retreat ceremony every two years on Horse Guards Parade in front of the beautiful backdrop of St James’s Park.
Enjoy a spectacular evening of outstanding military music and pageantry, featuring the precision drill of the 40 strong Corps of Drums and impressive
14-piece Fanfare Team.
