    Just out of interest, how did they let you know, post or email. I cant remember how I applied

    Well done, I hope you all get in and cant wait to ehar whats its like
  • We were notified by post. Have ONE week to reply and accept. The invites themselves will not be sent out til May.
    I suppose there are some children who don't accept/are away etc. So don't give up hope yet. There must be a reserve list!!

    Many congratulations on this. We got invites to the Party at the Palace for her golden jubilee, and just to walk through the gates at the front of the palace was amazing. You WILL have a fantastic day. If its anything like the 'last event' you'll get a picnic lunch in an insulated 'hamper' which should have her crest on - something your daughter will no doubt treasure. It is a nightmare leaving the palace at the end - but just enjoy the atmosphere. Let us know what you think about the party after you've been. We applied for tickets - but haven't heard, and I doubt we'd be lucky enough to get in twice!!

    Well Done!

    Congratulations - we have got tickets as well!

    Applied online and then suddenly one saturday this envelope with Buck Palace arrived for our daughter. I think the whole of the UK must have heard her - absolutely chuffed to bits. Then she invited her cousin and more screams erupted and the bill for Next clothing suddenly got larger!

    The tickets come out in May and the kids get free oyster tickets for the weekend. The requests for Tracey Beaker's autograph is getting longer and her friends are envious to say the least.

    So not a comp win but the next best thing - see you there Hubblebubble
