Queen Consort Camilla will be crowned alongside the new monarch
The palace has announced that King Charles III's coronation will be held in spring next year. Buckingham Palace has said that Charles will be crowned at a formal service on Saturday May 6, 2023 at Westminster AbbeyThe Royal Household has said that the ceremony will be “rooted in longstanding traditions and pageantry” but will also “reflect the monarch’s role today and look towards the future”.
“The coronation ceremony will take place at Westminster Abbey, London, and will be conducted by the Archbishop of Canterbury. The ceremony will see His Majesty King Charles III crowned alongside the Queen Consort. Charles is reportedly planning to slim down the ceremony with 6,000 fewer guests invited, ancient traditions axed and the four-hour service cut down to a tight 60 minutes. The number of those in attendance is set to be slashed from 8,000 to 2,000 and much of the costly pomp and ceremony has been scrapped.
The plans will differ from Queen Elizabeth II's three-hour coronation service in 1953, which was televised for the very first time and watched by millions. Following the service the Queen took part in a four-mile procession through London designed so that she could be seen by as many people as possible.
