Buckingham Palace State Rooms will be open to the public from 27th July until 1st October this year. The State Rooms form the heart of the working palace and are lavishly furnished with some of the greatest treasures from the Royal Collection - paintings by Rembrandt, Rubens, Poussin and Canaletto; sculpture by Canova; exquisite examples of Sèvres porcelain; and some of the finest English and French furniture.

A major exhibition this year, The Queen’s Year will include displays of ceremonial robes, gifts, uniforms, dresses and jewellery, as well as archive photography and film to evoke the many and varied aspects of the sovereign’s work.

New bank holiday for Queen's Diamond Jubilee in 2012

Stop Press: After some well-trailed rumours, it has been confirmed that we will get an additional Bank Holiday in 2012. In addition, the traditional Spring Bank Holiday will be moved to 4th June to create a 4-day weekend.

From the BBC website: "New bank holiday for Queen's Diamond Jubilee in 2012

A "nationwide celebration" will be held to mark The Queen's Diamond Jubilee, the government has announced. Events to mark The Queen's 60 years on the throne will take place in the first weekend of June 2012, with an extra bank holiday being created. Lord Mandelson said it would be a "truly historic occasion" which would allow the British people to show their "pride and affection" for The Queen. He also announced that Greenwich would become a royal borough."

The Event Guide will list the official Royal Events that are taking place to celebrate the Queen's Jubilee as well as unofficial events up and down the country as well as abroad.
