Following the very sad death of Queen Elizabeth on 8th September 2022, King Charles became the new monarch. The Coronation is centred around a solemn religious ceremony and has remained largely unchanged for over a thousand years. For the last 900 years, the ceremony has taken place at Westminster Abbey, London and is conducted by the Archbishop of Canterbury.
The Coronation of His Majesty The King and Her Majesty The Queen Consort is a time for celebration across the nation and Commonwealth, over a weekend of special events:
- Saturday 6 May: the Coronation Ceremony will take place at Westminster Abbey, London.
- 6-8 May: Coronation Big Lunches will be held up and down the country and across the Commonwealth.
- Sunday 7 May: a spectacular Coronation Concert will be performed at Windsor Castle, with iconic locations across the UK lit up using projections, lasers, drone displays and illuminations.
- Monday 8 May: a special Bank Holiday in honour of the Coronation, giving everyone the opportunity to join in and celebrate a national day of volunteering through Big Help Out activities.

I have been catching up on the Coronation today. I enjoy all the pageantry that comes with it and seeing the crowds with their patriotic attire, and all the flags waving. Thank you for sharing. All the best and have a wonderful weekend.
I saw the quiche on TV, it sounds good! Happy weekend, Valerie
This weekend is a great celebration for the English, with the coronation and all the other events.
That guiche recipe has to be delicious, I've eaten it but the typical French one, which is certainly very good.
Very happy weekend, and enjoy a lot
Big hugs, Caty
