Dozens of roads are closing this weekend so Platinum Jubilee street parties can be held

Street parties are expected to come alive with music, drinks and food as the nation looks to celebrate over the weekend of June 2 to June 5.

A total of 36 roads will be closed to traffic over the four-day weekend.

Councillor Stephen Simkins, Deputy Leader Wolverhampton Council said: “We are delighted with the overwhelming response from residents to hold street parties across the city to celebrate the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.

“Not only have residents taken up our offer of free road closures to host parties, we have also provided other support including insurance and grants to community groups that help them organise their events.

“It promises to be a weekend of community-spirited fun and events that will live long in the memory of everyone taking part in the festivities.”
