This year’s event is supported by The Royal Foundation, and the service will recognize the humanitarian efforts of selfless citizens across the UK. The service also celebrates the happiness that coming together to lift spirits can bring about.

In memoriam of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth, this year’s concert is dedicated to her. The late queen passed away on September 8, at her Sandringham estate. It is expected that the virtues extolled by the queen, those of duty, empathy, faith, service, kindness, and compassion, will be highlighted.
