How long will the queue be?
Waiting times can reach 30 hours, with guidance warning people they will be “required to stand for many hours, possibly overnight, with very little opportunity to sit down”.
When visitors reach the back of the queue, they are given a colored and numbered wristband. The wristband also allows people to leave the queue for a short period to use a toilet or get refreshments, and then return to their place in the queue.
More than 1,000 police officers, stewards and volunteers from the Boy Scouts, Samaritans and St John’s Ambulance will be on hand to help the public.
What can I expect from the queue?
The four and a half mile queue route takes in London Bridge, Southwark and Waterloo before ending at Westminster.
The furthest back it will go is Southwark Park, although this is subject to change and the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) will update people via Twitter on where the back of the queue is.
Along the way, the British Film Institute (BFI) will have an outdoor screen showing archive footage of the Queen and from her reign.
