THE QUEEN celebrates her official birthday today at the Trooping the Colour ceremony

First Battalion, The Coldstream Guards pictured on Horse guards Parade ground during Trooping the Colour.

The Coldstream Guards have marked Her Majesty The Queen’s official birthday on Saturday 9 June by trooping their colour in front of the Royal Family and 7,500 spectators on London’s iconic Horse Guards Parade.

All the Royal Colonels accompanied Her Majesty on the parade, with The Prince of Wales, The Duke of Cambridge and The Princess Royal riding on horseback; The Duke of York also rode for the first time in his new capacity as the Colonel of the Grenadier Guards.

These operational soldiers, for many of whom this was their first Queen’s Birthday Parade, are fresh from recent exercises in Dartmoor. They are famed across the world for their immaculate turnout and ceremonial prowess, but as a dual-role battalion they are equally busy with operational training and duties.
