Four-Day Weekend Planned To Celebrate Queen's Platinum Jubilee

It is still almost a couple of years away but already plans are being made for the Queen's Platinum Jubilee.

The May Bank Holiday Weekend in 2022 will be moved to Thursday 2 June, with another bank holiday on Friday 3 June to mark Her Majesty's 70th year as monarch.

It will be the first time any British sovereign has reached the historic milestone.

Events will be held across the four-day weekend to reflect on the Queen's reign, and her impact on the UK and the world since 1952.

The commemorations are being arranged jointly by The Royal Household and the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport.

Culture Secretary Oliver Dowden said:

"Her Majesty's Platinum Jubilee will be a truly historic moment - and one that deserves a celebration to remember.

"We can all look forward to a special, four-day Jubilee weekend, when we will put on a spectacular, once-in-a-generation show that mixes the best of British ceremonial splendour with cutting edge art and technology."
