When and where to watch the queen's funeral

Queen Elizabeth II’s coffin left her Balmoral Castle in Scotland on Sunday, starting a weeklong journey through the country before her funeral on Sept. 19.

The monarch died Thursday at Balmoral, ending a seven-decade reign and leaving her son Prince Charles to take the throne as King Charles III. 

Charles and the royal family accompanied the queen’s coffin on a slow march along Edinburgh’s Royal Mile, from the Palace of Holyroodhouse to St. Giles's Cathedral in Edinburgh, according to Buckingham Palace.

The hearse on Tuesday will make its way to Buckingham Palace in London before the queen is moved to lie in state, with her coffin on view to the public, for four days at the Palace of Westminster.

The queen's coffin will then move to Westminster Abbey on Sept. 19, which was made a national bank holiday in the United Kingdom.

National and world leaders are expected to be in attendance at the state funeral service. The White House confirmed this week that President Biden and first lady Jill Biden will attend.

Finally, the coffin will be moved to Windsor Castle, just east of London, for the queen’s committal service.

The multistep process is part of the preset plan for services and the line of succession in the event of the monarch’s death, a process codenamed Operation London Bridge. 

The funeral service starts next Monday at 11 a.m. in Britain, according to Buckingham Palace, or 6 a.m. EDT in the U.S.
