The Big Jubilee Lunch

Celebrate The Queen's Diamond Jubilee in London with your neighbours by hosting a Big Jubilee Lunch.

Big Jubilee Lunch in London

The Big Lunch is an annual nationwide event which encourages people across the UK to enjoy lunch with their neighbours.

This year The Big Lunch falls on the same weekend as The Queen's Diamond Jubilee celebrations, which is a four-day Bank Holiday weekend. So dust off the bunting and Union Jack flags from the Royal Wedding and enjoy a lunch fit for The Queen!

All you have to do is gather together your neighbours and choose what kind of an event you want – from a small gathering raising money for charity to a full-blown street party with music and a barbeque.

How to Organise a Big Jubilee Lunch

Every year since it began in 2009, The Big Lunch has been enjoyed by more than a million people, and this year’s special Big Jubilee Lunch is likely to attract even more participants.

If you want to get involved and set up your own local event, follow the "10 Steps to Organising a Big Lunch Guide" on the Big Lunch website.

You can also request a Big Jubilee Lunch pack, containing advice as well as posters, leaflets and recipes.
