2022 is a very special year for Her Majesty with her royal birthday being celebrated in June. This is special as by coincidence, this is when her Platinum Jubilee is which represents 70 years of service to the people of the UK. To mark the Queen’s celebration 2022, an extended bank holiday weekend is planned from Thursday 2nd to Sunday 5th June.
Over these four days, celebrations will include public events, community activities and national moments of reflection. If your business wants to take part, there are many ways in which you can join in. The Big Lunch has been running since 2009 and encourages communities to get to know each other, coming together in a spirit of fun and friendship. This year it will focus on the Jubilee celebrations.
What Can Your Business Do?
You could organise or take part in a street party which may also raise brand awareness. From Thursday 2nd June to Sunday 5th June 2022 it is legal for anyone to hold a street party & if you apply to the council in time, they can even put in place a temporary road closure for you & provide traffic cones & signs.
You could also just celebrate with your team, perhaps running a corporate event and inviting clients and partners. This could even include watching the celebrations on television.
Where Do We Come Into This?
However you choose to engage with the Queen’s celebration 2022, you’re bound to want some memorabilia to mark the event. We stock a wide range of Queen’s Jubilee flags and bunting, ranging from large flags to hang from windows or flagpoles, to car-mounted flags and handheld flags. We stock high-quality polythene bunting which is ideal for indoor & outdoor use to show your business’ support for the Queen.
As part of the formal celebrations, the monarchy is inviting children to create a picture of their hopes and aspirations for the planet over the next 70 years and the best ones are going to be displayed on flags and marched through London. If any of your team’s children are keen to take part, why not make this special for them and have their design custom printed onto a hand waving flag for them to keep?
For those wanting to go all out with their Queen’s birthday celebrations, we also offer wristbands, perfect for gaining entry to your corporate event! They’ll add a touch of fun as well as drawing everyone together in a real sense of community, and they can keep them as a reminder of the occasion.
Some Ideas!
Have you considered custom printed cocktail sticks as a memento of the event for your guests to take home with them after enjoying a snazzy cocktail with your team and other invitees? The weather in the middle of June should be scorching so why not invest in a pair of custom printed Queen’s birthday sunglasses or a custom printed frisbee for attendees to play with.
There are so many ways in which your business can enjoy the long weekend of celebrations and we wish you well with all of them.
