McDonald's will be joining the nation when it celebrates the Platinum Jubilee over the four-day bank holiday weekend. The momentous occasion, which marks 70 years since the Queen's accession, kicks off on Thursday, June 2.
The unprecedented anniversary has seen a big reshuffle in the 2022 calendar, with the spring bank holiday, which usually lands on the last Monday in May, moved to June 2, while an extra one has been added on Friday, June 3 for the Queen's Jubilee..
If you're planning to head to fast-food chain McDonald's over the long weekend, you might notice some changes. The fast-food chain has temporarily changed its iconic slogan and is also launching a limited-edition china packaging.

The restaurant is also altering its packaging, McDonald's has reimagined the Big Mac, Fries and Milkshake packaging that customers know and love as an elegant china set, adding Platinum Jubilee Pageant detailing.
There are 70 of the limited-edition sets up for grabs. All McDonald’s fans have to do to be in with a chance of winning is to enter the competition via the McDonald’s App between May 31 – June 6, with the lucky winners being crowned on June 8.
