Suella Braverman has extended licensing hours from the normal 11pm to 1am[/caption]
The UK’s economy will see a huge boost with over £8million expected to pour in from tourists and royal fans.
We have broken down what to expect from your local shops, favourite TV stations and go-to pubs over the Bank Holiday weekend.
TV
BBC One and Two will be showing all things Royal today.
They will have live coverage of the event all day.
ITV and Sky will also be broadcasting the coronation.
Channel 4 however, will be showing films such as Johnny English and Star Trek Beyond if people want to watch something different.
Roads
Roads around London began shutting down from 4pm on Friday.
They will remain closed until 9pm today.
From Mayfair to Waterloo and down to Victoria – the area will be relatively out of action for drivers from 7pm on Friday until the end of Saturday.
These include The Mall, Constitution Hill, Birdcage Walk, Trafalgar Square, and Victoria Street.
The City of Westminster warns “roads and parks around central London will be affected by significant road closures and parking suspensions”.
Councils have also approved 3,087 road closures for gatherings marking the royal event, according to the road management company one.network.
However, Transport for London has promised there will be no closures on public transport to accommodate for the royal festivities.
Supermarkets
There is no obligation for shops to close today but some small shops may opt to close their doors. Brits are advised to check opening hours in their local areas.
Many supermarkets will trade under their normal hours today and tomorrow – but could chose to adopt bank holiday opening hours on Bank Holiday Monday.
Asda
On Monday, Asda will open as usual today but will shut at 8pm
Tesco
The majority of Tesco’s larger stores will be open from 8am to 6pm on May 8, although some may stay open until 8pm.
Meanwhile, all Tesco Express stores will be open as normal.
Sainsbury’s
Sainsbury’s said most of its larger stores will be open between 8am and 8pm.
The smaller Sainsbury’s Local branches will be open as normal from 7am to 11pm.
But these aren’t guaranteed opening hours and will vary from branch to branch so you should check ahead to avoid disappointment.
Lidl
Most Lidl stores across England and Wales will open between 8am and 8pm on Bank Holiday Monday.
Branches in Scotland will be operating their normal Monday opening hours.
However, the discounter told The Sun store opening times may vary depending on where you head and customers should use its store locator to double-check.
Meanwhile, it is predicting that the quietest time to shop will be before 11am and after 4pm.
Aldi
Aldi will open its stores at the usual time on Monday, May 8, but they will close slightly earlier at 8pm.
All stores in Scotland will be open until 10pm as usual.
Again, it’s worth checking Aldi’s store locator for your local’s opening hours.
Morrisons
Morrisons shoppers will be able to bag their usual trolley or basket of goods on May 8.
The retailer said its stores will open at their usual time, but will be closing at around 8pm, so slightly earlier than usual.
Co-op
Co-op stores will be open for business as normal on May 8.
Again, opening times may vary from branch to branch so it is worth double-checking the retailer’s store locator before venturing out.
Pubs
Thirsty Brits watching the coronation in the pub are set to sink 62million pints this weekend.
Home Secretary Suella Braverman has extended licensing hours from the normal 11pm to 1am.
She said the new rules over the weekend will allow people to “enjoy an extra pint or two” as it is “a momentous occasion deserving of special celebration”.
Wetherspoons
Wetherspoon runs nearly 900 pubs across England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and Republic of Ireland, so you’ll be keen to know whether it’s opening its boozers on May 8.
Opening hours vary from pub to pub so you should always check ahead to see if your local will be open.
You can use its pub locator tool, or call on the phone.
Greene King
Greene King has over 300 pubs in London and a whopping 2,600 in the UK in total.
Opening times vary depending on which pub you go to, but again you can check the pub locator tool on its website to find out what time your local is open on May 8.
We checked out a number of Greene King pubs across the UK and they appear to be operating normal opening hours on this date.
Mitchells and Butlers
Mitchells and Butlers own notable brands including Harvester and Toby Carvery.
But again, opening times across its pubs and restaurants on May 8 may vary depending on which location you head to.
Luckily, the chain has a locator tool which you can use to find your nearest pub or restaurant’s opening hours.
Schools
With the coronation taking place on a Saturday, the extra bank holiday on Monday means schools are closed.
Football
No football matches will be played while the coronation is on.
A huge chunk of the Premier League games today have been moved to another day – or will just be played later on in the afternoon.
With early kick off completely scrapped, the earliest game of the day will be 3pm.
Only one game – which is Spurs Vs Crystal Palace – will be played in London as the capital prepares to be swarmed.
In total, 36 games in the EFL have been postponed.
It’s understood the Premier League have asked all clubs playing tomorrow to sing the national anthem before kick off.

All the 2023 Met Gala details you need, including the theme and who’s going
Fashion’s most exciting evening is upon us. Known the world over for its glamorous red carpet moments, the annual Met Gala is organized by Vogue as a fundraiser for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute. It’s also an opportunity for A-list celebs, models, and designers to show off their fashion bona fides.
Here is everything you need to know ahead of the big night.
What is the theme?
Each Gala has a theme corresponding to the exhibition inside the Met, which celebs experience as they mingle and dine throughout the evening. This year’s theme is “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty.” It celebrates the late German designer’s more than 60-year career in the fashion industry leading the creative direction of Chloé, Fendi, and, most notably, Chanel.
The theme has been criticized by some for celebrating Lagerfeld, who made several fatphobic, racist, and misogynistic comments in the press before his death in 2019.
How to watch the red carpet
Vogue is streaming its coverage of the Met Gala live on YouTube at 6:30 PM EDT / 3:30 PM PDT. The stream will feature Emma Chamberlain, La La Anthony, Derek Blasberg, and Saturday Night Live‘s Chloe Fineman. You can access the stream at this link or simply click on the player embedded below at 6:30 PM EDT / 3:30 PM PDT:
What should we expect to see on the red carpet?
Lagerfeld was known for his distinct personal style, which he refined as he aged, and we should expect to see modern interpretations of it on the carpet. In his later years, Lagerfeld wore almost exclusively black and white, usually a blouse with trousers and a jacket. He used white powder on his hair, which was always swept back into a low ponytail, wore gloves, and was never seen without his black sunglasses. He was beloved within the industry for these and other eccentricities, especially his adoration of his cat, Choupette (who should make an appearance this evening).
Lagerfeld’s more than a half-century of work in the industry is so extensive that it is difficult to summarize. His designs were known for their unfailing elegance, and he often played with hues of pink, white, and black. He rejuvenated the house of Chanel and reinvented its iconic suit, to which he added his own whimsical interpretations of proportion and the brand’s signature tweed. Expect suits, blazers, tweed, pearls, and lace on the carpet, in delicate pastels, white, or black.

Who is attending?
As Vogue’s editor-in-chief, Anna Wintour curates the Met Gala guest list of who’s-who in pop culture and entertainment. Penélope Cruz, Michaela Coel, Roger Federer, and Dua Lipa are this year’s co-chairs and should be in attendance. Florence Pugh, Paris Hilton, Priyanka Chopra, Kim Kardashian, and Elle Fanning have all confirmed they are attending, and it’s all but certain a few of Lagerfeld’s model muses — like Cara Delevingne, Naomi Campbell, Karlie Kloss, Devon Aoki, and Gigi Hadid — will grace the carpet.
The Cut notes that Chanel brand ambassadors like Margot Robbie, Nicole Kidman, Marion Cotillard, Margaret Qualley, and Jennie from BLACKPINK should make appearances. Last, but not least, Lagerfeld’s favorite feline, Choupette, is the “only guest explicitly confirmed to have gotten an invite” says The Cut, which means the red carpet will be covered in fur by the end of the night.
I’m a proud cougar – there are five reasons why men should date older women including key NSFW detail
A PROUD cougar has shared her top reasons for dating old women – and she doesn’t hold back.
TikToker (@karenleepoter) is known for handing out advice on sex and relationships as an over 60-year-old.
TikToker @Karenleepoter has suggested that there are plenty of perks to dating women her age.[/caption]
In a recent video, she suggested that there are plenty of perks to dating women her age.
The blonde beauty appeared on screen with a touch of makeup and cheery smile.
She posed the question, “Why date older woman?”
The brief clip then showed the influencer pointing to different lines of text with her painted nails.
She listed off all the reasons why she believes cougars should not be taken for granted, including “no games,” “confidence,” “no obligations,” “independent,” and “good in bed.”
Her followers seemed a bit divided on the topic, with some commenting that dating older woman can be just as challenging as courting the younger crowd.
“Keep telling yourself that, got just as many hang-ups and games as the younger crowd,” one person suggested.
Other people, however, felt that Karen’s theory was quite accurate.
“Older women are the best,” a second wrote. “I can honestly say about 80 percent of my girlfriends, and my late wife have been older than me. They are the best!”
A third person asked Karen if she was willing to put her claims to the test.
“Love to try with you…. What you say?” they asked.
The proud cougar did not respond to her admirer’s request.
Karen is not the first cougar to speak openly about her experiences with younger men.
Another older woman revealed that she often makes her younger lovers home-cooked dinners and takes them on vacation.
A third cougar has claimed that men have told her she ages just like a fine wine.
Karen and her colleague cougars have certainly tempted men with their offers.
