To commemorate his journey as the new King, celebrations will continue to take place across the weekend. While fans of the monarchy within the country will fill up the streets of the United kingdom in joy — back in Dubai, if you wish to watch the iconic moment live and celebrate along, here are a few places you can visit.

QE2 Dubai

For an authentic feel of the actual celebration, spend the evening at the QE2 Hotel, attending the King’s Coronation Charity Gala Ball. In the UK, the King has urged people to make the most of the public holiday and participate in “THE BIG HELP OUT” – where people will volunteer to help all sorts of charities and community projects. Following a similar sentiment, this gala is origanised to provide aid for initiatives like Gulf For Good and Larchfield Children’s Home, Tanzania.
