Although you don’t require a licence to host a street party for the Coronation weekend, or as part of the Coronation Big Lunches you do need to advise Nottinghamshire County Council.
Nottinghamshire County Council (NCC), in partnership with Via, will be charging no fees and will supply a set of signs for a ‘standard’ road closure free of charge
The council advise that while they will do all they can to support the events, it is not always possible to close a road where access requirements need to be maintained, although they will discuss alternatives
The Coronation of His Majesty The King and Her Majesty The Queen Consort is also a time for celebration across the nation and the Commonwealth, over a weekend of special events:
Saturday 6 May the Coronation Ceremony takes place at Westminster Abbey, London.
6-8 May will see Coronation Big Lunches up and down the country and across the Commonwealth.
Sunday May 7 a spectacular Coronation Concert will be performed at Windsor Castle with iconic locations across the UK lit up using projections, lasers, drone displays and illuminations.
Monday 8 May a special Bank Holiday has been proclaimed by the Prime Minister in honour of the Coronation, giving everyone the opportunity to join in with their communities and good causes through Big Help Out activities.
www.coronation.gov.uk have also provided a range of useful templates and materials to help you with your Coronation celebrations, including homemade bunting ideas, recipe cards and kids’ activity sheets.
Applications for road closures need to be made to NCC by Friday April 14.
