National Thank You Day Event Insurance

National Thank You Day is a day for everyone in the UK to thank those in their community as well as the Queen for her 70 years of service. It’s an opportunity for people to get together with their friends, family and neighbours to show appreciation for one another and Her Majesty The Queen over the four-day bank holiday weekend celebrating the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee. 

Street parties such as public lunches are due to take place on Sunday 5th of June 2022. Many of these parties will take place on roads which have been closed specifically for the occasion.

National Thank You Day and Platinum Jubilee street parties will be an exciting and potentially record-breaking event (as it’s hoped that over 10 million people will join in with the celebrations). With so many people potentially taking part in your event, you want to ensure that should anything go wrong on the day (such as injuries or damage to third-party equipment), you’ll be covered.
