The Diamond Jubilee Concert Registration

Home

On Monday 4 June 2012 there will be a star-studded concert, set against the spectacular backdrop of Buckingham Palace, celebrating Her Majesty The Queen's 60 year reign. The Diamond Jubilee Concert, produced by the BBC, is going to be one of the most spectacular shows ever staged in the UK. The BBC and music maestro Gary Barlow are bringing together some of the biggest names from the worlds of music, dance and musical theatre – including Shirley Bassey, Alfie Boe, Jools Holland, Jessie J, JLS, Elton John, Tom Jones, Lang Lang, Annie Lennox, Madness, Paul McCartney, Cliff Richard and Ed Sheeran.
Ticket holders, who are successful in the ballot, will also be able to enjoy a Jubilee picnic in the magnificent gardens of Buckingham Palace, before taking a seat in front of the Queen Victoria Memorial, where the concert will take place.
The application period closes at 23:59 hrs GMT on 2 March 2012. Tickets will not be allocated on a first-come first-served basis; there is as much chance of being selected if your application is made on 7 February as on 2 March.
Please read the Ballot Rules before completing the application form at the
bottom of the page.
