In
order to make the most of the extended weekend in honour of the Queen’s 60
years on the throne, Unique Client Solutions has come up with a guide to help
everyone celebrate.
The
majority of the events that are being held to commemorate the Queen’s Diamond
Jubilee are occurring in London. The Thames River Pageant on Sunday 3rd
will see up to 1000 boats navigating the river between Battersea Bridge and
Tower Bridge. The Queen herself will be part of the pageant and there will be
50 screens in place along the route so everyone should be able to enjoy the
day!
Unique Client Solutions believes the main event of the weekend will be the Buckingham
Palace Concert. The concert, which is being held on the Bank Holiday Monday,
has a variety of acts performing such as Jessie J, Paul McCartney and Madness.
There is expected to be around 20,000 attending the concert but people without
tickets will still be able to watch the concert live on BBC.
An
event that is taking place across the country is the Big Jubilee Lunch that is
planned for Sunday 3rd. For the Big Lunch, people are encouraged to
eat with neighbours and friends as part of the celebrations. This can be in the
form of a traditional street party or as a picnic! The
last main event of the long weekend is a more formal one, on the Tuesday 5th
there will be a Service of Thanksgiving and then a carriage procession by the
Queen.
In Sheffield,
where Unique Client Solutions are based, there are also a number of events to
be enjoyed by the residents and any visitors to the area over the weekend.
Jubilee Beacons will be lit in over 6 locations, including Chapeltown Park and
Mayfield Valley. On Saturday morning there will be a service at Minster of St
George to celebrate the Queen’s 60 year reign whilst on Monday 4th
there is a huge celebration happening in Weston Park where there will be live
music throughout the day!
Unique Client Solutions also wants to offer a few tips to make sure you can enjoy the
weekend as much as possible:
·
Plan any
journey you might take in advance, and allow plenty of time to get around
·
Don’t drive
into London unless absolutely necessary as many roads are close and traffic is
likely to be busy
·
Check the
times of last trains, and leave early if you’re worried about getting home
A
spokesperson from Unique Client Solutions commented on the upcoming
celebrations saying, “It’s amazing that our Queen has been on the throne for 60
years and its great for the whole country that we get an extra two days to
celebrate. We can only hope that the weather stays nice for the celebrations
and that everyone is able to enjoy themselves!”
