Every year, crowds of Royal enthusiasts fill the streets of London waving flags in anticipation of this beloved event, which features 1,400 parading troops, 200 horses and 400 musicians.

A palace spokesperson said: “Her Majesty’s medical team is very encouraged by the progress made so far and remains positive about the King’s continued recovery. His Majesty’s treatment program will continue, but doctors are pleased enough with the progress made so far that the King is now able to resume many public-facing duties.

“His Majesty the King will return to public-facing duties shortly after a period of treatment and recovery following his recent cancer diagnosis.” He said upcoming events would be adapted “to minimize any risk to Her Majesty’s continued recovery”.

There were fears that the popular program might have to be canceled for the first time since the national railway strike in 1955. It was previously canceled in 1926, from 1940 to 1946 due to World War II, and in 1948 due to weather.

Last year, the king was the first monarch in more than 30 years to attend Trooping the Color on horseback.
