Event overview
Date(s): From Sat 6 – Mon 8 May
Concept:
“There’s a Coronation party – and you’re invited! Become a part of our Coronation community at the Black Country Living Museum and experience what it was like to celebrate our monarchs over time and across the commonwealth.”
The whole site will be heavily decorated as if the whole community are preparing for the celebrations. A street party will take place between 11:30 – 3:30pm in the village with brass bands, thanksgiving, street races/games and sing-alongs. Visitors can take part in a range of traditional activities and food making associated with coronation celebration: jam tarts, crown bread loaf, jelly. Celebratory food will be available in outlets across the site – as well as from street hawkers during the street party.
“Another chance to meet Mr Singh – this time around the Elephant and Castle – along with the formidable landlady Doris May Davis. Don’t get caught by Miss Robbins – the bossy do-gooding party organiser who will give you one of her to do lists!”
Visitors can use their UnChained pass for this event.
