Southall is getting ready to mark the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee with a range of celebrations.

Ealing residents are getting ready to celebrate with 86 street parties organised by communities across the borough – even more than the 27 held last year for the royal wedding.

The council has helped neighbours get in the party spirit by waiving the fee for street party applications and road closures and providing traffic management and sign posting.

There is a free public event in Southall Park, Uxbridge Road from 10am to 6pm on Sunday 3 June.

It will be a fantastic opportunity for families to enjoy themselves and for the Southall community to come together.

There will be 4 stages for the artists and massive LED screens. Artists are coming as far away as India to perform. Local children will put on live displays. The event will be filmed by Star TV.

Organisers estimate that 25,000 people will attend.

The 3 street parties taking place in Southall are:

Day	Street	Area	Time
Monday	Scotts Road	between numbers 1 – 30	12:00 hrs – 21:00 hrs
Monday	Adelaide Road	between Norwood Road and Lea Road	12:00 hrs – 18:00 hrs
Tuesday	Oswald Road	entire lenth	10:00 hrs – 22:00 hrs

There will be a host of live music and entertainment in Oswald Road from 10am to 8pm, complete with food and drink stalls. People of all ages are welcome to attend.

Councillor Julian Bell, leader of Ealing Council said: "It’s going to be a very exciting weekend of celebration in Ealing. I’m delighted that so many people across the borough are getting together with family and neighbours to celebrate the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee and pleased that the council is able to support this."
