The prime ministers of Belize, Saint Kitts and Nevis, and Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, voiced their desires for their respective countries to transition towards a republic. A constitutional commission to look into the issue was formed in November 2022 in Belize. In the lead-up to the coronation, the prime ministers of Saint Kitts and Nevis and Saint Vincent and the Grenadines also pledged to create constitutional commissions to look into the issue. [282] [283] [284] The states of Guernsey planned events to celebrate the coronation from 5 to 8 May. A vigil was held on 5 May at Forest Methodist Church to reflect on the coronation's spiritual element. On 6 May, bells rang from Town Church, Vale, Forest, and St Pierre du Bois. A live broadcast of the coronation service was played on a large screen at the King George V Sports Ground (KGV), followed by a military parade from Fort George to the Model Yacht Pond. A 21-gun salute was fired at noon from Castle Cornet as part of the national salute. On 7 May, a Coronation Big Lunch was held at Saint Peter Port seafront, along with a service of thanksgiving at the Town Church. That evening the Coronation Concert was planned to be screened live at the KGV playing fields, and buildings including Castle Cornet and Fort Grey were illuminated in red, white, and blue in the evening.

The offertory followed, during which gifts of bread and wine were brought before the King and prayed over; the prayer was a translation from the Liber Regalis, which dates from c. 1382 and is one of the oldest sources for the English coronation service. [97] Charles and Camilla then received Holy Communion from the Archbishop of Canterbury and the congregation recited the Lord's Prayer, before a final blessing. [97] End of the service [ edit ] The King is crowned. The Archbishop of Canterbury places the St Edward’s Crown on Charles’s head. Trumpets will sound and gun salutes will be fired across the UK. The broadcaster has confirmed that coverage will be anchored by Kirsty Young, while Huw Edwards presents from the doors of Westminster Abbey, Sophie Raworth speaks to guests, Clare Balding commentatesfor the ceremonial route and Anita Rani reports from the crowd outside.The new sovereign is required to make three statutory oaths: the Scottish oath, to uphold the Presbyterian Church of Scotland; the accession declaration oath, to be a true and faithful protestant; and the coronation oath, which includes promising to uphold the rights and privileges of the Church of England. This decision was likely made for sustainability reasons but also to avoid any controversy with the Koh-i-Noor diamond crown. The coronation will take place this Saturday, May 6 – eight months on from his automatic appointment as King on September 8last year.

However, a royal jewellery blogger claims a daytime formal dress code could be established for the occasion in May, in which case hats would take the place of tiaras.

The Absolutely Fabulous actress, who provided commentary for Sky News at the Queen’s Jubilee last year, will be attending the service at Westminster Abbey as a guest of Charles and Camilla. The dress code for peers without a role in the ceremony was originally business suits or parliamentary robes, rather than the coronets, coronation robes, and court dress traditionally worn. [40] [21] This was changed in the week before the coronation after protests, with peers allowed to wear coronation robes but not coronets. [41] The general dress code for men was morning dress, a lounge suit or national dress. [42] Art [ edit ] Invitation to the coronation of King Charles III and Queen Camilla Andrew – The Problem Prince, in 60-minute episodes, will also feature archive footage, an interview with former Newsnight producer Sam McAlister and access to palace insiders.
