In a patriotic atmosphere imbued with pride, the band (brass ensemble) of the Auxiliary Forces – Southern Zone added a remarkable festive touch this Saturday morning, October 31, 2026, to the national flag salute ceremony held at Unity Square on Agadir’s corniche, marking the first anniversary of Unity Day—an important national occasion that evokes the values of cohesion, solidarity and loyalty to the nation’s constants and sacred values.

To the rhythm of patriotic and military pieces, the band accompanied the raising of the national flag, in a scene where national symbolism blended with a spirit of discipline and commitment. Patriotic melodies rang out across Unity Square, expressing pride in belonging to the nation and attachment to its unity and constants.

The ceremony was attended by Saïd Amzazi, wali of the Souss-Massa region and governor of Agadir Ida-Outanane Prefecture, as well as the regional commander and provincial commander of the Auxiliary Forces in Agadir, several security and military officials, heads of decentralized government services, elected representatives and civil society figures. The event took place in an atmosphere marked by seriousness, solemnity and pride in this national occasion.

The participation of the Auxiliary Forces band was a highlight of the ceremony, owing to the artistic dimension and national symbolism it brought to the event, as well as the fact that it embodies the institutional presence of the Auxiliary Forces at various national occasions and their contribution to official ceremonies and to promoting the values of discipline, citizenship and commitment.

The first anniversary of Unity Day holds particular significance as an opportunity to recall the values of national unity and cohesion among the various components of the Moroccan people, renew attachment to the Kingdom’s constants and institutions, and highlight the strong ties uniting the Throne and the people under the enlightened leadership of His Majesty King Mohammed VI, may God assist Him.

Unity Square on Agadir’s corniche was thus transformed into a space celebrating national symbolism, where the band’s melodies mingled with the sight of the national flag flying high, creating a tableau embodying the spirit of belonging and national pride and making the ceremony a powerful patriotic moment commemorating Unity Day.
