The exciting, unique

families coming to London to join in the Jubilee celebrations. On
the main stage, Festival highlights include a newly created 70
minute spectacular, 'The Magic of Disney in
Concert', the first ever performance at a festival of the
BBC's Strictly Come Dancing, and an adapted
appearance of War Horse, the award-winning
National Theatre production. There is a Kids Zone
with favourite kids television characters, a Commonwealth
Stage with artists from around the globe, a Parade
Ground with military bands, and displays by dogs, horses,
motorcyles and parachutists. Sainsbury's has also teamed up with
some of Britain's best-loved brands who will be an integral part of
the family fun and entertainment.
Justin King, Sainsbury's CEO, said: "We
are delighted to offer our customers the opportunity for free
tickets to this wonderful Jubilee Festival. We are thrilled with
the programming and believe that there will be no other
entertainment programme quite like this in the UK. It's a great way
for families to celebrate The Queen's 60 glorious years as
monarch."
Jon Culshaw: "I'm honoured to be part of
the Jubilee Family Festival and to share the hosting duties with
the stunning Myleene Klass.  This unique event has more faces
than I do and will be a brilliant way of keeping the family
entertained in London for the Jubilee Festivities."
