(I would have posted this on the Politics board. But, that's not available, now. I don't know if it ever will be. However, this falls into the category of News-To-Be ... so, here we are.)
I'm on the west coast of the U.S., and I will watch the ceremony, which I understand will be broadcast, beginning at 2 AM, our time. I'm not sure if that is the time that all of the pageantry will commence on TV. I don't want to miss any of it. So, as the schedule becomes clearer, in our time region, I'll plan accordingly.
I remember playing in the backyard, with a couple of little friends, when my Mother came to the back door to tell us that Queen Elizabeth was about to be crowned. She strongly suggested that we should come in, to watch, as it is was witness to history. Actually, I recall her words about the significance, more than I do about the vision of the crowning, itself.
That was over 70 years ago. I don't judge the Royal Family ... nor, do I have to pay for them.
But, I do want a clearer - if updated - opportunity to be a witness to history.

No but I will watch the Kentucky Derby!!! Is the Derby today? I love to pick a horse. Of course, I know nothing about them but their names. But, it's fun to find a name I like, and cheer him on.

Well I missed it.
Will watch a broadcast while doing other things later.
I’ve been looking at pictures though and am struck by how much Princess Charlotte takes after Diana.

There are several real-time, as well as "highlighted" offerings on YouTube.
The carriage procession from Buckingham Palace began at 2AM, here. I watched for a little more than 2 hours, then went back to bed. I've watched some of the recession, and "balcony scenes," on YouTube.
