While much of the official celebrations during the four Bank Holiday weekend (from 2 June to 5 June) will take place in London, it has now been announced that Prince William and Kate Middleton will be among the senior royals who will tour the UK during that period.
The Earl and Countess of Wessex will visit Northern Ireland, while Princess Anne will visit Scotland to attend Platinum Jubilee events.
Meanwhile, the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall will likely participate to London celebrations next month.
