Cavalry Memorial Parade

Sunday 11 May 2025

The Parade
The Cavalry Memorial Parade and Service will take place in Hyde Park on Sunday 11th May 2025.  Dress will be suits / jacket and trousers, Regimental ties and medals.  Berets and Cherries may be worn.  Serving and retired members of the Regiment start to gather from 1000hrs on the Broad Walk (East) just inside the park, parallel to Park Lane.  Please RV at our Regimental Standard by 1045hrs.  The Parade steps off at 1100hrs.  A short memorial service follows, after which you are free to make your way to the RAF Club

Seating and Standing Areas
You need to book seating/standing area tickets for family or guests, or if you wish to attend the service but cannot march.  Access to the seating and standing area is by ticket only and will be via three entry points, at each end of the Serpentine Road and from the Broad Walk.  Serpentine Road entrances will close promptly at 1055hrs; however the Broad Walk entrance will remain open at all times.

The system to order your seating/standing area ticket is changing for 2025 and moving ‘online’.  Full details will be announced by HHQ soon.  Keep an eye on the website.

Regimental Drinks
We regret that, due to dwindling numbers, the Association Lunch will not take place. However, immediately following the Parade a short drinks reception will be held for all Association members and Serving Personnel, in the Royal Air Force Club, 128 Piccadilly (situated next to the Cavalry and Guards Club). The CoR and CO will take the opportunity to update those assembled on Regimental and Association matters, after which you will be free to disperse and enjoy the remainder of the afternoon.

This is an informal gathering for All Ranks.A free reception drink will be provided by the Association.
