Visiting London For The Coronation: Top Tips For Celebrating Like A Local

 
London is gearing up to host King Charles' coronation, and the city will be buzzing with excitement. This is going to be one epic weekend, filled with pomp, ceremony, and more street parties and events than you can shake a stick at. The whole world will be watching and if you’re going to be in London, this is going to be a weekend to remember.

And we're not just talking about the formal events. London is going to be one big party, with something for everyone. From Mayfair’s upmarket Secret Garden events, hosted by hotels, bars and restaurants in the area, including a once-in-a-lifetime ball at the Ritz to cooler events in Shoreditch and everything in between, there's never been a better time to explore the city.

But here's the thing. You don't want to be weighed down by heavy bags and backpacks, if you’ve checked out of your accommodation and have hours before your next flight or train, do you? That's where Nannybag comes in.

It is the easiest and most convenient way to store your luggage over the Coronation weekend or any time you visit London. There are hosts all along the Coronation route and all over London, check out locations on the company website and book on the app – safely storing your bags couldn’t be easier.

Here are some tips to make it a weekend to remember.

Plan and book ahead


With so many events and activities taking place, plan, and book as many events as possible so you don’t miss out.

Get ready for four seasons in one day

London weather is unpredictable, so make sure you're prepared for rain or shine. And if you need to shed a layer, drop it off. While you’re there, many locations will let you use the toilet and their wifi for free.

Avoid road closures

Tube and bus it, hire a bike or scooter or even better, put your walking shoes on. Central London is going to be packed, so avoid diversions by using public transport or soak up the atmosphere and walk as much as you can. Lots of roads will be closed, and buses will be re-routed, so check before you set out.

Stash your valuables

There is nothing worse than losing a passport or other valuables when you’re out and about. The company looks after your luggage as if it were their own and will give it the royal treatment. Every bag is securely stored and sealed using a biodegradable security seal, and all bags are protected up to the value of €1000 in case of breakage, loss or theft.

Coronation weekend is going to be epic. So don't get weighed down by heavy bags. Drop them off at a convenient location and get ready to be part of this historic event.
