The funeral service for Queen Elizabeth II will take place on Monday and will be televised across the world.
The monarch died peacefully at Balmoral on Thursday after 70 years on the UK throne. She was 96.
The Queen’s state funeral will be held at Westminster Abbey at 11 a.m. BST (6 a.m. ET). Her coffin arrived in London on Tuesday evening after its journey from Scotland.
Viewers in the US can watch the live coverage on NBC News, NBC News Now, CNN, ABC, and Fox News, according to the US Sun.
Those in the UK can tune into BBC One, BBC News, and Sky News, or watch a livestream on BBC iPlayer, according to The Telegraph.
The Queen will be buried at St George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle, where she spent much of her time over the last few years. Her late husband, Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, will be moved to be with the Queen following her burial. Prince Philip died at the age of 99 in April 2021.
The Queen is succeeded by her son King Charles III, who immediately ascended to the throne following the death of his mother.
As Insider previously reported, the day of the funeral will be considered a national day of mourning, with businesses across the Commonwealth closing. It will also become an official bank holiday in the UK.
It’s expected that billions of people from around the world will tune into the funeral coverage, and that hundreds of thousands will travel to London for the event. World leaders will also attend the funeral, including President Biden.
In the days leading up to the funeral, the Queen will lie in state at Westminister Hall, where members of the public can pay their respects to the late monarch. As the Times of London reported, visitors could have to wait up to 30 hours in five-mile-long queues to do so.
