Ceremonial guns will be tested this evening in preparation for the Queen’s Birthday Parade, the Royal Bermuda Regiment warned.

The test will involve firing two 25-pounder guns between 6.30pm and 7pm.

Residents around the Warwick Camp area can expect to hear two loud bangs during this time.

A spokesman for the RBR said: “The RBR takes this opportunity to apologise in advance for any inconvenience caused during this evening’s test firing process, and thanks the public for their patience and understanding.”

The annual Queen’s Birthday Parade will take place along Front Street in Hamilton on Saturday morning. More details about the event will be released later in the week.
