Queen Elizabeth made history as the longest reigning British monarch when she marked her 70th anniversary since ascending the throne this past February. To celebrate her decades of service to the United Kingdom and Commonwealth, an unprecedented Platinum Jubilee celebration has commenced on Thursday, June 2, and will run until Sunday, June 5.
The weekend will see a host of public events and festivities, including the annual Trooping the Color parade as well as a national Thanksgiving Service for the monarch. Members of the royal family — including Prince William, Duchess Kate, Prince Charles, Duchess Camilla, and more — will be in attendance. Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan will also return to the UK for their first public visit since stepping down as senior members of the royal family in 2020.
