Platinum Jubilee 2022
Residents and Businesses across Abingdon are gearing up to enjoy the Abingdon celebrations for the Platinum Jubilee in celebration of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth’s 70th Year Reign.
We are planning a weeklong celebration of events from Monday 30th May – Sunday 5th June 2022 all taking place in the Rye Farm Meadows in Abingdon with the beautiful backdrop of the Thames to enjoy.
There will be events for all ages, including performances from local dance and drama groups, an evening of local bands, a comedy night and a funfair for the kids. (With plenty of food and drink to enjoy along the way).
Abingdon Town Council are sure this will be a chance to bring the community together after a difficult few years and celebrate in style.
Do you sing in a local band? Always fancied yourself as a bit of a comedian? If so we want to hear from you.
Please email louise.brown@abingdon.gov.uk if you are a local business or organisation and would like to take part.
We want to hear from:
- Local Dance societies
- Local Drama societies
- Local Bands
- Local comediens
- Local food and drink stalls
- Local Businesses looking to sponsor the event
More details will be added nearer to the time so please keep checking back.
There are also many National events celebrating the occasion, with the Queens Birthday Parade taking place on Thursday 2nd June. The Platinum Party at the Palace on the Saturday and then street parties on Sunday 5th. The official timetable of Events can be viewed here.
