The BBC Radio 1 DJ, who has been tasked with delivering the King's wishes at the event on Sunday evening, has expressed concern that it will be a "brilliant" way to begin the show in Windsor Castle's grounds. Tong said, 'He wanted Ibiza classics,' he told the PA news agency backstage.' 'We asked us to recommend a couple of songs and we suggested three or four, but one of them, and that's the one that's starting the performance, so they clearly had a hand in what we wanted to see.' When asked why he thought this was one of the playlist requests, he replied, "I think they want to showcase a large number of UK talent, target different demographics, and be relevant to various age groups."

Around 20,000 members of the royal family's Coronation Concert will continue the festivities after the King and Queen and other members of the royal family were crowned at Westminster Abbey on Saturday. The concert will feature a Union flag-shaped stage, which will bring out the audience, according to republished photos from last month. The roof will also feature a halo-like screen, which the BBC claims will'symbolize the Crown guarding the nation'. The broadcaster announced that the staging for the 74-piece classical ensemble, made from the strings of the Countess of Wessex's String Orchestra and woodwind, brass, and percussion sections of the Bands of the Household Division, could be arranged on several levels for the 74-piece ensemble, as well as the wall steps in the middle.
