Tens of thousands of Britons took the party out to the streets Saturday night for the much-anticipated Platinum Jubilee concert at Buckingham Palace.
With a surprise appearance by the Queen via video clip alongside Paddington Bear and performances by Diana Ross, Rod Stewart, Duran Duran and Queen, the concert marked the biggest evening of the four-day Platinum Jubilee celebrations that wrap up officially later on Sunday.
The Mall and surrounding parks were packed with people even hours before the concert, projected on big screens to the thousands bedecked in Union Jack flags and British memorabilia of all kinds.
Among those in the crowd were two future kings: Prince Charles and Prince William, the latter of which attended along with his wife Kate, Duchess of Cambridge, and two of their three children. Prince George and Princess Charlotte could be seen taking in the show, along with celebrity guests and Britons from all walks of life.
Here’s a look at some of the highlights from the concert.
