The coronation bank holiday is approaching with parties being planned across the world, so we made an interactive map of all the public street parties in Reading to help you find a party near you.
While speaking to Reading locals in the town centre, reporter Megan O'Neill found that most people are eager to celebrate the historic event - 21-year-old student, Lola Bamgbowu, called it "a once in a life time opportunity".
25-year-old, Olive Budzinska, from Reading plans to attend one of the street parties: "I'm going to go to my friends street party on the 6th, on Saint John's Street. I think they do street parties quite often for different occasions." She added: "I've never experienced a coronation so I guess that it'll be quite a new thing to experience."
Reading Borough Council have provided a list of all public street parties taking place in Reading, so we could make a map.
The street party celebrations will see road closures and diversions.
