There will be a major change to a role King Charles carries out during the ceremony.
The King will inspect the soldiers from a carriage, rather than on horseback, during next month’s Trooping the Colour event.
The monarch will conduct the review of soldiers from an Ascot Landau carriage alongside Queen Camilla.
Earlier this week, the Army confirmed that Trooping the Colour would go ahead despite the upcoming General Election.
