The nation will come together to celebrate the coronation of King Charles III on Saturday in front of a global audience of around 300 million people.
It has been more than 70 years since the last coronation in the UK, when the King’s mother, Queen Elizabeth II, was crowned at Westminster Abbey in 1953. The ceremony was watched by around 12 million people in the UK, with the coverage then broadcast around the world, with 85 million people watching recorded highlights in the United States alone.
Now in the digital age, the global audience will be even larger for King Charles III’s coronation, with coverage streamed on computers, smart phones, and other handheld devices. You can be part of British history and join in with the celebrations as the nation unites.
