Beating Retreat Ceremony

The Beating Retreat Ceremony is a grand military tradition that marks the formal conclusion of Republic Day celebrations in India. Held every year on 29 January at Vijay Chowk, New Delhi, the ceremony features massed bands of the Indian Armed Forces performing patriotic tunes as the sun sets. With synchronized marches, soulful music, and the iconic retreat of troops, it symbolizes discipline, honor, and the nation’s rich military heritage, ending with the lowering of the national flag in a dignified atmosphere.
