The Queen will begin her Diamond Jubilee celebrations on 2 June next year by attending the Epsom Derby, Buckingham Palace has announced.
The 60th anniversary celebrations will be held over four days.
A flotilla of up to 1,000 boats will sail along the Thames with the Queen on the Royal Barge on 3 June.
People will also be encouraged to share Sunday lunch with neighbours and friends, and a BBC concert will be held at the palace on 4 June.
Tickets will be available by public ballot later. The concert will be televised, but the line-up of performers has yet to be announced.
The government has designated Tuesday 5 June a bank holiday for the jubilee, while the late May bank holiday has been moved to Monday 4 June, to enable a four-day weekend of events. BBC News Report

It's three days really as they have nicked May day. Nice to be off for my birthday again. mind you it is Sunday and I would have been off anyway but at least can have a drink providing I haven't popped my clogs or that guy in the states finally gets it right and the world does end in October.

She may well live to a hundred, but only if she cuts back on all the cooking, ironing and hoovering.
