The message that King Charles III and Queen Camilla entrusted today to a Buckingham Palace spokesman is a heartfelt thank you in the aftermath of the popular response to the solemn coronation in Westminster Abbey, London. Sovereigns say “deeply touched” by the welcome received and “deeply grateful” to everyone who helped organize the event as part of “such a glorious occasion,” the spokesman said. Not without underlining “the number” of those who have shown “support for their majesties”, and will continue to do so in the celebratory events scheduled in London and in the Kingdom today and tomorrow.

As is customary, Thousands of ‘street parties’ and ‘coronation lunches’ are planned across the UK today marking the time when subjects celebrate in their own communities, the day after the ceremony with which Charles III and Camilla formally ascended the throne. And some members of the royal family will visit the picnics and tables that will be set up in neighborhoods and parks across the country as popular tradition dictates. The second day of celebration over the long weekend set up on the occasion of the coronation will culminate in the concert at Windsor Castle scheduled for tonight at 8pm local time and broadcast live on TV, where international stars will perform including Andrea Bocelli, Katy Perry and the Take That.
