Coronation of King Charles: ceremonies, concerts and local celebrations

For example, on 7 May there will be a special concert at Windsor Castle which will be produced and broadcast live by the BBC. It is not yet known who will perform, but according to Buckingham Palace it will be a combination of “international music icons and contemporary performers”. Also playing is a ‘world class’ orchestra, accompanied by ‘some of the greatest entertainers and dancers’.

Several thousand British people were able to get two free tickets to the concert via a raffle. The Coronation Choir will also appear on stage: singers from among others refugees, LGBTI and sign language choirs.

People from across the UK were called in to host what’s being called the Coronation Big Lunch on 7 May. Initiatives should combat loneliness and allow friendships to flourish. A day later, people are called upon to devote themselves to one another during The Big Help Out; charities run activities where Brits can help and do something for the community.
