The traditional Independence Day parade of the Estonian Defence Forces will take place at Tallinn’s Freedom Square on Monday February 24. More than 1,000 soldiers and some 47 vehicles will take part in the parade. Organising for the event will start an hour earlier.<\/p>\n

The Republic of Estonia will celebrate its Independence Day on Monday at 12 noon. In addition to Estonian Defence Forces, the parade will also include NATO allies and their soldiers and equipment.<\/p>\n

Tallinn’s public transport timetables will change on both the eve of Independence Day and on Independence Day itself. For example, tram lines 1, 2, 4 and 5 will not operate on Independence Day from 12-13.30. Public transport will also follow a Sunday timetable for the public holiday.<\/p>\n
