We are delighted to welcome back the Band of His Majesty’s Royal Marines Collingwood for a spectacular evening of music-making, following the disappointment of last year’s cancelled event due to operational commitments. This much-anticipated concert will feature a thrilling joint performance with the RHS Band, showcasing the precision, versatility and world-class musicianship for which the Royal Marines are renowned.
The evening will conclude with a stirring outdoor performance of Sunset on the Parade Ground, featuring the combined bands and the school’s Ceremonial Guard – a powerful display of musical pageantry and tradition. (In the event of wet weather, alternative arrangements will be made.)
The bar will be open from 6.30pm and throughout the evening, selling a range of Adnams wines, beers and cider - as well as a selection of soft drinks. Cash and card payments accepted.
There will be an opportunity to support the work of the Royal Navy and Royal Marines Charity (RNRMC).
Kindly sponsored by the Royal Hospital School Association
