Platinum Jubilee Pageant, London, UK
The Pageant took place on the 5th June 2022. Despite the early rain it cleared to bring a cloudy day. The pageant route was from Westminster to Buckingham Palace. Over 10,000 people are involved, including the military, over 6,000 volunteers, performers, key
workers and 2,500 members of the general public.
Act 3 - Lets Celebrate
These are twelve chapters and they tell the story of Queen Elizabeth’s reign over the seventy years. From her wedding to Prince Philip in 1947 to the Coronation in 1953. It involved her charities that are dear to her heart and horses and corgis.
With each section being unique, they combine street theatre, music-on-the-move, urban dance, and the very best of Carnival, May Day, Mela, Fiesta and Mardi Gras. It has been conceived as an interpretation and celebration of The Queen’s extraordinary life experience.
The Wedding Party
This is created by Nutkhut a performance company. It features a four-tier wedding cake, backed by acrobats on the move. Following on are children from the George Dixon Academy in Birmingham. The dancer's outfits which are platinum Sari are designed by a fashion designer and Bournemouth University fashion students.
