Stars gathered in Manchester alongside thousands of community champions for a glittering celebration of the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee. The concert saw Manchester’s AO Arena transformed into a huge British street party, with bunting and fairy lights adorning the venue and bringing a cosy intimacy that fit the celebration perfectly.
The evening, hosted by former X Factor star Fleur East and comedy star Jason Manford, was a proud celebration of the best of British talent. The show was being filmed by ITV with plans to air it as a special in honour of the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee in June.
As well as performances from the likes of Ella Henderson, Mark Owen and Becky Hill, over 1,000 charities from the north west and beyond were in the audience, with over 1,000 members of the public participating in the show. Guests were able to apply for free tickets to the gig, organised by the National Lottery as its Big Jubilee Street Party.
