I’m planning to be in London for the celebration, but don’t have a designated place to view the festivities. Could you suggest a venue for me to see the Royal procession?

I believe this is the “official” site:

More generally, does anyone know what impact this has on crowds/activity in London during that four day period? I am tentatively planning on going to London after finishing the BOE tour the previous Saturday.

In years past, when I have been in London for the Trooping the Colour, we have always arrived early that morning to find a spot on the Mall (the road that runs from Buckingham Palace). If you want Buckingham Palace in the backdrop then you will need to find your way towards that end of the Mall and get there even earlier (This is obviously a prime viewing spot). The procession will leave the Palace, go down the Mall, then into Horse Guards Parade (this part is ticketed by lottery). About an hour late the procession will return up the Mall. The Queen and the family will come out on the balcony and there will be a flyover. This will be on Thursday, June 2, 2022.
