The concert to mark King Charles III's coronation is set to take place tonight.
Yesterday was a momentous day for the Royal family as the monarch was officially crowned at Westminster Abbey. The star-studded concert will take place tonight from the East Lawn of Windsor Castle.
The show will be hosted by Hugh Bonneville and take place in front of a crowd of 20,000 people. The show will be broadcast at 8pm on BBC One.

According to Mirror Online, a source told OK! that the show was dealt a huge blow when two A-list stars turned down the King's request to perform. A royal source said: "The King has suggested a number of people he would like to perform and Adele and Ed [Sheeran] were on that list. He was very keen that they were part of the concert.
"There is a team set up to get the talent signed up so they approached the two of them, but got replies saying that they were unavailable, which was a massive disappointment. They are titans of the showbiz industry and are quintessentially British but also known across the globe. It’s such a shame.”
However, the show still features a line-up of stars, which was confirmed earlier this year. We have rounded up the full list below:
