The coronation of King Charles III and Queen Consort Camilla, which took place at Westminster Abbey, London, on Saturday, was screened for the invited guests at Al Bustan Palace Hotel. The event was organised by the British Embassy in Muscat.
“This is an important event for the United Kingdom and Commonwealth,” said James Goldman.
In tribute to the King’s lifetime of public service, the British Embassy staff members will also be volunteering their time to support local communities in Muscat.
The British Embassy, in a statement, said that a host of events to bring the UK together in the celebration would be held over a special bank holiday on the weekend to mark the historic milestone, with activities also taking place overseas.
The ceremony is a solemn religious service that has been held at Westminster Abbey for the last 900 years.
The coronation will reflect the Monarch’s role and look towards the future while being rooted in long-standing traditions and pageantry.
On Sunday, the Coronation Concert at Windsor Castle will bring global music icons and contemporary stars together in celebration of the historic occasion.
Thousands of events are expected to take place in every corner of the United Kingdom as people take to their streets, gardens, parks and community spaces to join the coronation celebrations and mark this historic occasion.
