The River Thames is to be at the heart of the plans for the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee celebrations.
With all the excitement about the Royal Wedding and the London Olympics, it is easy to forget the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee is taking place next year.
Although it is good to know that not everyone has forgotten about the remarkable occasion which will be taking place in London in 2012, to celebrate The Queen’s 60 years on the throne.
It was recently announced that the River Thames is to be the main focus for the Diamond Jubilee, with a flotilla comprising of 1,000 boats set to sail down The Thames, accompanied with marching bands and a huge firework display.
The public are being encouraged to join in the seven mile long flotilla, which will be made up of boats of all shapes and sizes.
Members of the public can join in the celebrations either by becoming part of the water-pageant in their own boat, being on-board a passenger boat put on especially for the occasion, or joining the crowds to line the banks of the Thames to watch this remarkable event unfold.
