Projects / The Platinum Jubilee Pageant

On Sunday 5 June 2022, artists and communities from around the country and Commonwealth, and more than 5,000 military personnel, performers, key workers and volunteers from across the UK united for The Platinum Jubliee Pageant in London, marking The Queen’s 70 year reign.

Imagineer are delighted to have been a part of this unique event.

We used humour and distinctive Britishness quirkiness to celebrate Her Majesty’s extraordinary life. There were ponies, racehorses – all of The Queen’s Favourites – and misbehaving corgis too.

Designed and created in collaboration with fashion students from Coventry University, our monumental puppet Godiva was dressed for the occasion in a Platinum frock printed with photographic informal images of some of The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh’s most joyous moments.

A group of 75 young dancers – part of Birmingham’s Commonwealth Games Cultural Programme – provided energy and exuberance. The puppet’s horse, powered by 30 cyclists, carried a giant Platinum Crown which elevated and descended in salutation.
