It is free and un-ticketed, so it is recommended that royal fans arrive sharp to secure a good place to watch the crowning of the King.
On Sunday 7 May, the screen will remain in place and broadcast The Coronation Concert at Windsor Castle to spectators in the Gardens.
The Coronation Concert will bring global music icons and contemporary stars together in celebration of the historic occasion.
Edinburgh locals are also invited share their favourite memories and record well wishes for the new sovereign from Tuesday, May 2, in the online Book of Congratulations.
Physical books will also be available at the City Chambers and Central Library from Tuesday, May 2 until Tuesday, May 9 - opening hours of 10am until 5pm for the physical copies.
In his role as His Majesty’s Lord Lieutenant, Edinburgh’s Lord Provost Robert Aldridge will be representing the City of Edinburgh at the proceedings in London.
The Lord Provost said: "The Coronation of King Charles is a truly historic event and we’re proud to be joining in with screenings and services in towns and cities across the United Kingdom for those who wish to come together and celebrate the occasion.
"Watching the ceremony and celebrations on the big screen will be a great way for people to be involved and soak up the atmosphere of the extraordinary weekend."
The big screen has been supported by the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport.
People are encouraged to bring their own picnics, however the Scott’s café will be open and can provide take-away food and beverages.
As the screening will take place outdoors, the Council is advising that those wishing to attend to plan ahead, dress for the weather, and bring plenty of water.
Toilet facilities will be available and there will be limited seats so blankets and chairs are permitted inside. Extra litter bins will be in place and BBQs will not be permitted.
