Her Majesty The Queen Elizabeth’s Platinum Jubilee Beacon Lighting

2nd June 2022

The Queen's Platinum Jubilee Emblem - The emblem features a purple and platinum design. The continuous platinum line reveals a stylised St Edward’s Crown, incorporating the number 70, on a round purple background associated with royalty and signifying a royal seal. The elegant font Perpetua, meaning forever, is an acknowledgement to the first British Monarch ever to mark 70 years on the throne.

The UK has a long tradition of celebrating Royal Jubilees, Weddings and Coronations with the lighting of beacons, and the Platinum Jubilee is no exception.

To celebrate and commemorate Her Majesty The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee, over 1,500 beacons will be lit throughout the UK, Channel Islands, Isle of Man and UK Overseas Territories. In addition, for the first time, beacons will also be lit in each of the capital cities of the Commonwealth with the Principal Beacon being lit in a special ceremony at Buckingham Palace.

Peacehaven Town Council will be hosting its Jubilee Beacon Lighting on Thursday 2^nd June at 9:15 p.m. at the War Memorial, Meridian Park, Meridian Way, Peacehaven, BN10 8NF.

Everyone is welcome to come along and join in this special occasion to mark not only Her Majesty’s 90 reign, but also to enjoy a unique event to start the very special Platinum Jubilee weekend celebrations.
