The Musical Ride of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police is a special unit showcasing the equestrian skills performed by 32 cavalry who are regular members of the force.

The first official ride was held in 1887 in Regina, District of Assiniboia, and was commanded by Inspector William George Matthews.

It dates back to 22 July 1952, when Commissioner Leonard Nicholson carried out the first inspection at what is now the Musical Ride Centre.
