Queen's Platinum Jubilee four day weekend and events - full details
10.01.2022 - 17:39 / dailyrecord.co.uk
The Queen 's Platinum Jubilee takes place this year with a full roster of celebratory events in store.
Importantly, 2022 is set to have an extra long bank holiday weekend - it's a happy new year indeed.
Not only does the Platinum Jubilee mark the 70-year reign of the Queen, it's the first Platinum Jubilee for any British monarch.
The Queen ascended to the throne on February 6, 1952, but the occasion will be celebrated throughout the year.
Buckingham Palace has unveiled the full programme of events, including an extra bank holiday this June.
A four-day bank holiday weekend is set for Thursday, June 2, followed by the Platinum Jubilee bank holiday on Friday, June 3.
Read on for the full list of events...
Celebrations will include the 95-year-old monarch opening her private estates to the public, and some of the world’s biggest stars performing outside Buckingham Palace.
It is not clear which events the Queen will attend or take part in as she was ordered to rest by doctors in October last year following an overnight hospital stay for unspecified preliminary investigations.
The bulk of the Jubilee duties are thought likely to be given to the rest of the royal family, including Prince Charles and Duchess of Cornwall.
The Queen usually spends the anniversary of her accession privately at Sandringham.
Official Jubilee celebrations will begin today, January 10, when Fortnum & Mason launches the Platinum Pudding Competition to find a dish to dedicate to the Queen’s 70 years on the throne. Recipes will be judged by an expert panel including Dame Mary Berry.
