A spectacular 360-degree stage set in front of Buckingham Palace has been unveiled ahead of the BBC’s Party at the Palace event.

The structure, surrounding the Queen Victoria Memorial, is for the star-studded Platinum Jubilee pop concert.

An artist’s impressions show the structure stretching in a circle around the historic monument, with the palace in the backdrop projected with the image of a Union flag, a large portrait of the Queen, and with lights beaming up hundreds of feet into the night sky.

A further two stages – linked to the circular stage by a walkway – will be constructed in front of the palace railings.

Construction began earlier this week to create 15,000 standing spaces around the memorial, and 7,000 seated in the north and south stands.
