THE BENTLEY
Witness history in the making with a visit to London during the months of May and June. As the longest reigning UK monarch of all time, Queen Elizabeth II will be celebrating her 90th birthday for the second time this year. The second time this year you ask? The Queen celebrated her 90th birthday on the 21st of April, however due to royal tradition, Kings and Queens have held birthday celebrations on summer days different from their actual birthday. This is so they can enjoy the summer weather and provide activities and celebration for the public to enjoy.
