Where to watch King Charles III's coronation on May 6

Witness another historical event of The Royal Family—even when you're miles away.

King Charles III, 74, is set to be crowned on May 6, alongside his wife Queen Consort Camilla. The coronation day will begin at 6 p.m. (Philippine time) and is awaiting over 2,000 guests present in Westminster Abbey. It is expected to last around two hours. 

Viewers from the Philippines can watch the historical event as it will be live streamed for free on The Royal Family’s official YouTube channel starting at 5:25 p.m. (Philippine time). For cable users like SKY Cable and Royal Cable, stay tuned to major news channels like BBC World News, Fox News, and CNN as they will have special coverage of the service. 

On the other hand, those from the US can stream the King's coronation starting at 5 a.m. EST via CBS/Paramount+, NBC, ABC/Good Morning America, Fox News, CNN, and BBC starting at 2:30 a.m. EST.

 

King Charles III’s coronation comes 70 years after Queen Elizabeth II’s coronation in 1953. Although activities will largely be the same for the last 1,000 years, this year’s coronation will be less grand in “solidarity” with the citizens of the United Kingdom “who are experiencing an economic crisis.” 

Philippine President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. and First Lady Liza Marcos are some of the invited guests for the ceremony. 

The day after the ceremony, a coronation concert will be held featuring artists Lionel Richie, Katy Perry, and Andrea Bocelli.
