The River Thames Diamond Jubilee Pageant celebrates Her Majesty's sixty years of service by magnificently bringing the Thames to life; making it joyously full with boats, resounding with clanging bells, tooting horns and sounding whistles; recalling both its royal heritage and its heyday as a working, bustling river.
Music barges, boats spouting geysers and pyrotechnic barges spitting smoke and daytime fireworks will all take part and there will be specially constructed elements like a floating belfry, its chiming bells answered by those from riverbank churches.
The crowds on the riverbanks and bridges will give a rousing reception to the boats and downriver of London Bridge there will be a gun salute and the flotilla will pass through a spectacular avenue of sail made by traditional Thames sailing boats, oyster smacks, square-riggers, naval vessels and other impressive ships in a magnificent celebration of the Queen's Jubilee.
