St George's Day 2026

On Sunday 19th April, Lincoln Scouts came together to celebrate the 2026 St. George’s Day Parade a day dedicated to honouring our traditions and cherishing the memories we create together.

This year’s theme, Memories, felt especially fitting as thousands of young people and adults gathered across the city to share moments that will stay with them for years to come.

From the youngest members proudly taking part in their very first parade to those reflecting on many years of Scouting adventures, the day was filled with pride, friendship, and a true sense of community spirit. Over a thousand participants once again filled the historic streets of Lincoln, each one contributing to the shared experiences that connect our Scouting family.

Events like this do not happen without the dedication and passion of so many people. We extend our heartfelt thanks to the organisers who carefully planned every detail, the volunteers who gave their time and energy, and the talented bands whose music brought the parade to life. Your efforts helped create moments that our young people will treasure for years to come.

We would also like to express our sincere gratitude to the staff at Lincoln Cathedral, Lincoln Castle, and The Lawn. Their continued support and hospitality allow us to celebrate in some of the most iconic and meaningful spaces in our city. Marking St. George’s Day in such historic surroundings adds a special depth and significance to every step of the parade.

Most of all, thank you to every Scout, leader, and supporter who took part. Your enthusiasm, commitment, and sense of belonging are what make days like this so special. St. George’s Day is more than just a date in the calendar — it is a time where memories are made, friendships are strengthened, and the spirit of Scouting shines brightly.

As we look ahead, we carry these memories with us and look forward to creating many more together.
