The Queen attended the epic musical celebration along with several members of the royal family, including Prince Charles, Prince William, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. Those absent from the party were the queen’s husband, Prince Philip, who is recovering from a successful hip replacement operation and Kate Middleton, who as is expecting to put to bed any time from now.
Proceeds from the concert went to benefit The Queen’s Commonwealth Trust, a new charity launched to help encourage young people to excel in areas like sports, education, health and the environment across the 53 Commonwealth countries. As president of the newly-launched trust, Harry spoke at the concert.
The concert featured performances from stars, such as Shawn Mendes, Tom Jones, Kylie Minogue, Sting and Shaggy, Ladysmith Black Mambazo, Anne-Marie, Craig David and Donel Mangena.
