How will it be different from Queen Elizabeth II's coronation? The wording might change for the King's coronation - it has varied across the generations of the royal family. The Queen's coronation oath went like this:Īrchbishop: Will you solemnly promise and swear to govern the Peoples of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, the Union of South Africa, Pakistan, and Ceylon, and of your Possessions and the other Territories to any of them belonging or pertaining, according to their respective laws and customs?Īrchbishop: Will you to your power cause Law and Justice, in Mercy, to be executed in all your judgements?Īrchbishop: Will you to the utmost of your power maintain the Laws of God and the true profession of the Gospel? Will you to the utmost of your power maintain in the United Kingdom the Protestant Reformed Religion established by law? Will you maintain and preserve inviolably the settlement of the Church of England, and the doctrine, worship, discipline, and government thereof, as by law established in England? And will you preserve unto the Bishops and Clergy of England, and to the Churches there committed to their charge, all such rights and privileges, as by law do or shall appertain to them or any of them? King Charles will take the coronation oath and there are religious rituals to be carried out. We know that the Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, will minister the ceremony.

University College London's Constitution Unit says the government will ultimately be in control of who's on the guest list and who isn't - not King Charles (although he can have some input). If the guest list for the King's coronation is similar to his mother's, we can expect to see representatives from the Houses of Parliament, prime ministers, religious leaders and representatives from other Commonwealth countries. Lots of people speculated the coronation would take place on June 2, which would coincide with the 70th anniversary of the coronation of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, but the decision was made to hold it earlier.īecause the coronation has been scheduled for a Saturday, it's unlikely there will be an extra public holiday (or bank holiday) for the occasion.Īn interesting fact - King Charles's coronation will be on the same day as his grandson Archie's fourth birthday - the oldest son of Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex. Every coronation since 1066 (38 of them, to be exact).The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's wedding.The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh's wedding.It will be held at Westminster Abbey - the same place as:
