The
Queen's Birthday Parade will be held on Saturday 13th
June 2015 on Horse Guards Parade.
The Colour will be trooped by 1st Battalion Welsh Guards.
The
postal ballot for tickets to attend The Queen's Birthday
Parade opens in January 2015 and closes at the end of
February.
Applications
to attend the Parade in the seated stands should be sent in
January and February 2015 only to:
The Brigade Major
Headquarters Household Division
Horse Guards
Whitehall
London SW1A 2AX
Note
that applicants from Canada, Australia and New Zealand may
instead apply to their respective High Commission in
London.
Applications
should state how many tickets are required (maximum 3 per
application) and include a stamped, self-addressed
envelope for acknowledgement. (Overseas applicants should
provide an International
Reply Coupon). Do not send payment at this stage.
A
standard acknowledgement will be returned including a
reference number. Applications are entered into a ballot
to be drawn in March 2015.
Successful
applicants will then receive a letter in April, which
will include instructions for purchasing the tickets
which will cost £30 each.
There
are also two reviews prior to the Queen's Birthday
Parade:

The
application process for the Reviews is as above (but only
via The Brigade Major's office and there is no maximum
restriction within reason) stating how many tickets are
required. Successful applicants will be notified and any
payment will then be requested.
Ticket prices for
successful Review applicants:
£10.00 each for The Colonel's Review
Tickets are free of charge for The Major General's Review
Children
must be in possession of a ticket. There are limited
wheelchair spaces for all the parades. Separate

reasons beyond the control of the organiser.

Mall. Events begin at approximately 10am.
