queen's coronation gala



 Through MHUK, Ian received two tix to the Queen’s Coronation Gala. 
Hosted at Buckingham Palace Gardens to celebrate 
the 60th anniversary of the Queen’s Coronation.

To be able to see the “outside world” from behind the gates of 
the Palace was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

“Royal Warrant” vendors were set up all over the grounds, 
which were absolutely amazing – flowers and pathways and little ponds 
and the Palace in the background.

Truly makes you forget you are in the centre of London
when behind the gates/walls.

Performances throughout the night were from UK artists including 
orchestra, theatre and ballet.

My favourite was the English National Ballet and 
Ian’s was Eric Whitacre's 'virtual choir' which sang alongside a live choir.

The overall experience of drinking Moet in the Queen’s garden 
and watching amazing artists is something we will never forget. 










 Hope you enjoyed the pictures of the queen's backyard!
