The historic coronation of Their Majesties King Charles III and Queen Camilla will take place on Saturday, May 6th, and your hosts for the day on BBC will be Kirsty Young, Huw Edwards, Sophie Raworth, and Claire Balding.
Guests, including friends and colleagues of the King and Queen, will join Kirsty in her studio outside Buckingham Palace to share their perspectives. The morning will consist of a series of films focusing on the King’s interests, followed by analysis of this new chapter in British history from Kirsty and a wide range of experts.
A team of presenters will be stationed in strategic locations across the capital to report and comment on events as they happen. JJ Chalmers will address service members from the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth as they arrive in London for one of the largest military parades in recent memory.
The King’s procession will travel through the famous streets of ceremonial London, and Claire Balding will provide commentary from the sidelines. People from all over the country will be converging on the nation’s capital to participate in the festivities, and Anita Rani will be there to greet them. The event’s focal point is Westminster Abbey, where Sophie Raworth will give a speech to the invited crowd outside. Huw Edwards will comment on everything going on inside the abbey, from the beginning of the music to the arrival of friends, famous faces, religious leaders, heads of state, and global and British royalty.
As the King and Queen arrive for this momentous occasion, Huw will lead viewers through the ancient coronation ceremony, explaining its symbolic oaths and sacred Christian rituals. After the ceremony is over, the festivities will continue with commentary on the spectacular coronation procession as King Charles III and Queen Camilla return to Buckingham Palace. Complete coverage will continue as people gather on the Mall to see the royal family make their famous balcony appearance and a commemorative fly-past on the anniversary of Their Majesties’ coronation.
