Household Division Foot Guards (2024)

The Guards Bands

Each Regiment of Foot Guards has a Regimental Band, who are part of the Army Corps of Music.

During Changing the Guard at Buckingham Palace the Bands provide musical support playing a selection of music that ranges from stirring military marches to popular tunes including theme music from films and TV shows.

In addition to their Regimental Band each battalion has, with the exception of the Scots Guards, a Corps of Drums.

The Scots Guards, and the Irish Guards, who in addition to their Corp of Drums, have a Pipe Band who can be seen occasionally at both Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle.

The Bands can be identified by the plume in their bearskin cap, button spacing, collar and shoulder badges, in the same way as the Guards Regiments.
