A Comprehensive Guide to King Charles III's Coronation and British Coronation History.
TL;DR Summary
King Charles' coronation will feature a grand procession, anointing with holy Chrism oil, new music commissioned by Charles, the crowning moment with the St Edward's Crown, and a balcony appearance at Buckingham Palace. The ceremony will break with tradition as Charles and Camilla will travel in the modern Diamond Jubilee State Coach and return in the 260-year-old Gold State Coach. The anointing is considered the most sacred part of the ceremony, while the crowning moment is the most blingy way of signing the job contract.
