Local Events: Golden Jubilee Celebrations in Kensington & Chelsea

The sky over Holland Park is set to light up in celebration of Her Majesty The Queen's Golden Jubilee at an amazing fireworks display to take place on Friday 7th June.

The Royal Borough invites residents and visitors to join in the fun at an evening of music and fireworks. The occasion is just one of many events the Royal Borough has organised for the Jubilee.

Spectators are encouraged to bring along a picnic, relax and enjoy the free entertainment on offer. The evening is due to begin at 8pm with the fireworks kicking off at 9.45pm.

The Royal Borough's other celebrations begin on Sunday 2nd June with special Jubilee services at St. Mary Abbots, Kensington at 11.15am, Holy Trinity, Sloane Square at 11am and other churches in the Borough.

The Royal Borough's newly elected Mayor, Councillor Professor Sir Anthony Coates, will attend the Holy Trinity service before formally opening 'Fayre in the Square', an event taking place in Sloane Square from noon.

A service of thanksgiving to celebrate voluntary and public service will take place at St. Mary Abbots at 11.15am on Sunday 9th June. On Tuesday 25th June the Royal Borough will join in the celebrations at the West London Day at Bushy Park.

The final climax of the Jubilee will come as the Queen's Jubilee Baton Relay passes through the Borough on Monday 15th July.
