A number of minor road closures and parking restrictions will be taking place ahead of and during tomorrow’s Ceremony of the Keys parade.

The event is a re-enactment of a procedure which took place each evening during the Great Siege and for the following 140 years.

Organised by the Royal Gibraltar Regiment and supported by the Royal Navy and Royal Air Force, the event starts at 7pm in Casemates Square.

Teams of RGP officers will be policing the event and the force’s Roads Policing Unit will be implementing the minor traffic changes, which members of the public and motorists should take note of.
