Welcome to The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Tuesday 5th June - seating ballot at the Queen Victoria Memorial
On Tuesday 5th June, the Diamond Jubilee weekend will culminate with a day of celebrations in central London.
The day's events will include a service at St Paul's Cathedral followed by two receptions, a lunch at Westminster Hall, a Carriage Procession to Buckingham Palace and finally a Balcony appearance and Flypast.
The seats in place around the Queen Victoria Memorial outside Buckingham Palace will allow 10,000 members of the public to enjoy the day's events from a ring-side seat, free of charge.
Ticket holders will be able to watch the departure from the Palace of The Queen, The Duke of Edinburgh, and many Members of the Royal Family to St Paul's Cathedral, the Carriage Procession to Buckingham Palace, a balcony appearance and flypast. There will also be the opportunity to watch the rest of the procession, coverage of the day, and the National Service of Thanksgiving at St Paul's Cathedral live on big screens whilst experiencing the unique atmosphere of this important national occasion.

  • I can't believe it !!!! Got an email today we got 2 tickets but I can't used them as my son is 9 I think it is really unfair that they are not allowing children total discrimination !!! I understand about under 5's but a 9 year old is fine so total bummer and we can't give them away as you have to bring photo Id and proof of address so that's the end of that :(
