Apply to host a street party to celebrate The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee
To celebrate Her Majesty The Queen’s 70 years on the throne, Westminster City Council is supporting residents and community groups to apply to hold individual Platinum Jubilee street parties with their neighbours over the extended bank holiday weekend, that runs from Thursday 2nd June to Sunday 5th June 2022.
People who wish to host a street party can apply to the council for free, where normally there is a fee involved which has been waived for this occasion, and applications are open now until Thursday 21st April. You can apply online and find out lots more related information and support at the dedicated Platinum Jubilee web pages.
The council is also planning to host a MyWestminster Big Jubilee Lunch community event at Paddington Rec on Sunday 5 June. This Big Jubilee Lunch event will see local communities come together to watch a screening of the Platinum Pageant at Paddington Rec and celebrate this historic milestone with free live music, face painting and Jubilee-specific arts and crafts.
A ticketed lunch event is also being hosted for local groups as a thank you for all the good work they do in the community. More Westminster-focused events will be announced as and when they are confirmed over the coming months.
Other national events marking Her Majesty’s Platinum Jubilee milestone will be held throughout the year and over the extended bank holiday weekend in June, and many of these will take place in Westminster.
