Missed out on tickets to the Corrie Naish concert, AKA Glastonbury for royalists? Don’t worry, us too. But that doesn’t mean you can’t get in on the Windsors’ biggest night of the year. That’s right: the whole thing will indeed be streamed live on the BBC and online. And given the shoddy weather this weekend, it’s probably a good thing you can watch from the comfort of your sofa, with access to unlimited snacks and drinks, instead of outside in the rain.
The concert will be broadcast live to the nation from Windsor Castle with a star-studded line-up. Read on for everything you need to know about watching King Charles’s coronation concert on the TV.
