After much deliberation is has been decided that the 2012
Windsor Castle Royal Tattoo will not run. This is very much a
postponement only and plans for 2013 are already in full swing.
In the traditional evening slot the Tattoo has for the last four
year’s occupied, there will be a Pageant (10th, 11th
and 13th May 2012) in celebration of Her Majesty The
Queens 60 years as Sovereign.
Our intention was very much to run the Tattoo a week later after
the Pageant. However with the commitments and enormity of 2012,
it was decided that the full Military effort should be
concentrated on the Pageant in Her Majesty’s special year.
The Diamond Jubilee Pageant will take place on the evenings of
10th, 11th and 13th May 2012 in
Her Majesty’s private grounds of Windsor Castle. Visitors will
be treated to a spectacular journey around the world, reflecting
The Queen’s state and commonwealth visits during the course of
her reign. Starting from London the journey goes West visiting
The Americas, Australasia, Asia, The Middle East, Africa, Europe
and finally Great Britain.
At each stop indigenous dancers, musicians, military personnel
and horsemen will join together in a scene full of movement,
colour and sound that culminates in a spectacular demonstration
of the culture of their country. We very much hope that you
will join us in the celebrations and be part of the Pageant.
Tickets will be on sale from 9am on Tuesday 1st
November. There are 3,000 public tickets available for each
performance and we expect demand to be high, so be amongst the
first to book your tickets. Call Ticket Factory on 0844 581
4970 or book online at
www.diamond-jubilee-pageant.com. Please be advised that the
full Diamond Jubilee Pageant website will be live on 31st
October 2011.
May I take this opportunity to thank you for your support and
commitment shown to our troops over the last four years, and we
look forward to the 2013 Windsor Castle Royal Tattoo.
