The grandeur of royalty will once again grace the halls of Westminster Abbey as King Charles III assumes the throne, alongside Camilla, the Queen Consort, in a lavish coronation ceremony on May 6.

The codename given to the preparation for this highly anticipated event, “Operation Golden Orb,” hints at the pivotal role that gold will play in the regal proceedings, promising to be a spectacle for all to see.

When is the King's Coronation?

Save the date! The Coronation service will start at 11 am on Saturday, May 6 at Westminster Abbey. The ceremony will be followed by a weekend of street parties and concerts to honor the new monarch.

King Charles III ascended the throne after the death of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, last year, making him the oldest new monarch in British history.

Renowned composer Lord Andrew Lloyd-Webber, best known for writing popular musicals including Cats and The Phantom of the Opera, has been commissioned to create the Coronation Anthem for King Charles III’s ceremony.

The ceremony itself will include many traditions from the late Queen’s service, including the anointing with consecrated oil and, of course, the Crown Jewels.
