70 glorious years! Celebrating The Queen's Platinum Jubilee
Jubilees started life as religious celebrations but have become occasions to celebrate the life and reign of a monarch.
In September 2015, Queen Elizabeth II became Britain’s longest reigning royal and is now the first monarch to reach the Platinum Jubilee – an incredible achievement! She acceded to the throne in 1952 - that’s a whopping 70 years as the Queen of England! To get to Platinum (70 years) she has already achieved Silver (25 years), Ruby (40 years), Gold (50 years), Diamond (60 years) and Sapphire (65 years).
During this year’s Jubilee bank holiday (2nd-5th June), celebrations will be taking place all over the UK – from Street parties, dinners with friends and family, to meals out and BBQs to celebrate this incredible accomplishment.
Whether you’re having a street party, a family dinner or just staying in we hope you have fun celebrating the Jubilee weekend!
