“Her Majesty’s Platinum Jubilee will be a historic moment that deserves unforgettable celebrations. Olivier Dowden, British Secretary of State for Culture, is already preparing with enthusiasm the festivities on the occasion of the 70 years of reign of Elizabeth II, scheduled for June 2022. An exaltation that should be communicative, since the British will receive a nice gift as part of these celebrations: a four-day weekend, June 2, 3, 4 and 5, 2022, as announced The Guardian, Thursday 12 November 2020.
On the program of these “spectacular” festivities: the distribution of a platinum jubilee medal to officials of the Kingdom, such as personnel from the armed forces and those from the emergency services. A tradition that dates back to the reign of Queen Victoria – when an official medal was designed to mark her 50th anniversary on the throne. This long weekend will also be an opportunity to look back on the highlights of the reign of Elizabeth II, who has worked with no less than 14 Prime Ministers since her accession to the throne in 1952, at just 25 years old.
A secret program
While the exact jubilee schedule is kept under wraps and depends on the development of the novel coronavirus pandemic in the UK, the Queen’s previous Golden Jubilee, in 2002, gives some idea of what to expect. A concert at Buckingham Palace set the British capital ablaze, including the interpretation of God Save the Queen by Brian May, former guitarist of the legendary rock band Queen.
