Is there any National Holiday during that period? There will be a Bank holiday in England and Wales on the last Monday in May which is 30th. so things will be busy on the Friday night. Traffic will be really bad on the Friday as it is a popular time for families to go on holiday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turnip eater Posted December 3, 2020 #5 Share Posted December 3, 2020 The dates change in May 22, because HM Queen Elizabeth II will have been on the throne for 70 years on June 2, so the Bank Holiday at the end of May will move to ThursdayJune 3, plus an additional BH on Friday June 4. Quote below from www.gov.uk The May Bank Holiday Weekend will be moved to Thursday 2 June and an additional Bank Holiday on Friday 3 June will see a four-day weekend to celebrate Her Majesty The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee - the first time any British monarch has reached this historic milestone.

phabric Posted December 4, 2020 Author #6 Share Posted December 4, 2020 Thanks for the helpful information. I knew that there was a holiday for the Queen but was not sure May or June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nini Posted March 8, 2021 #7 Share Posted March 8, 2021 Yup! I just learned of this for the first weekend in June 2022. I am so glad that we booked early May British Isles cruise. London will be packed in early June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
