TO CELEBRATE THE QUEEN’S 70 YEARS ON THE THRONE
THE PLATINUM JUBILEE
NEW DETAILS OF THE PAGEANT THAT WILL HONOUR HER RECORD-BREAKING REIGN
A giant dragon puppet, with wings spanning the width of The Mall, has been revealed as the awe-inspiring centrepiece of the spectacular show honouring a recordbreaking 70 years as monarch for the Queen (above)
Marching bands, circus acts and a giant dragon puppet bigger than a doubledecker bus and with wings that span the width of The Mall will lead a dazzling pageant to mark the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee next year.
The story of Her Majesty’s long and eventful reign will be played out on the streets of central London as a fairy story by War Horse author Sir Michael Morpurgo, There Once is a Queen, is brought to life during the day.
