King Charles III's coronation will be held on Saturday, May 6, 2023, Buckingham Palace said in an announcement Tuesday.
He will be crowned alongside his wife Camilla, the Queen Consort. The ceremony will take place at Westminster Abbey in London and it will be conducted by the Archbishop of Canterbury.
"The coronation will reflect the monarch’s role today and look
towards the future, while being rooted in longstanding traditions and pageantry," the Palace said.
The 73-year-old ruler previously known as Prince Charles became King upon the death of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, on Sept. 8. It is tradition for there to be a period of mourning observed between the accession of the new sovereign and their actual coronation — the former Queen waited
more than a year after the death of her father to hold her own ceremony.
The UK government has yet to announce whether the Friday before or Monday after the coronation will be a bank holiday.

Quote of the Day
Recipe of the Day or a Healthy Diet Habit Tip of the Day
Today, May 6, is INTERNATIONAL NO DIET DAY. Today, our Healthy Diet Habit of the Day is to learn about Lifestyle Solutions.
Lifestyle Solutions
are the opposite of diets! You take a look at your personal life, what you love to eat, and how you use food in your life. You develop a new way of dealing with food, without deprivation. It is a process that involves learning to eat for health, but keeping your favorite foods in your life in moderation!
It is not a complicated diet menu that you hate, but learning to prepare healthy meals full of more vegetables. You will develop a plan to incorporate healthy diet habits
into your life!
