Where To Celebrate The Jubilee In London

It isn’t long until the nation will be celebrating the Queen's Platinum Jubilee, with events taking place up and down the country to mark the historic occasion. But have you made plans yet?

To save you a job, I've gathered my top events happening in London, so you can hopefully decide where to go and how to best celebrate the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee!

Southbank Centre

Date: June 1-3
 
The Southbank Centre has a huge array of events taking place over the weekend. 
Including Punk Alley, subtle for the whole family, you can watch the Lazurr Tuts as they invite all to participate in creating songs, writing placards and playing music. 
Or there is the Nu Civilisation Orchestra: The Queen’s Suite, which will see the acclaimed Orchestra perform a section of Duke Ellington's jazz compositions.
