Schedule Updates

Schedules for changing the Windsor Castle Guard can change, sometimes at short notice, when the Guards are required for operational or other ceremonial duties.

We use Facebook, Twitter and G + to share updates. LIKE US to get the latest information.

Wet Weather Cancellations

Changing the Guard can sometimes be cancelled, especially in wet weather.

The decision to cancel can be made, by the Captain of the Guard , sometimes as late as 10:45 on the day.

This means we cannot update our website in time to help people en-route or already at the Castle.

Provisional Dates

The dates shown in the calendar above have been confirmed by the British Army.

In January 2017 the alternate day winter, and daily summer, schedules were replaced with fixed days for a three month trial period.

The trial period has been extended and schedules remain under constant review.

Provisional Dates, due to the uncertainty of the situation at the end of the current trial period, are not currently being published.

Updated information will be published on our website, and shared on Facebook , Twitter and Google+, as soon as it becomes available
