In the United Kingdom, the Queens Official Birthday is now celebrated on the first, second, or third Saturday in June. The Queens Official Birthday does not coincide with when she was born (21 April 1926). It is the Anniversary of her Coronation on June 2, 1952. It is marked in London by the ceremony of Trooping the Colour (皇家军队阅兵), which is also known as the Queens Birthday Parade. 狄修暇漳粹镐臆懂握酶京洁翻喊袜殃荡初咒布评凌口克抒波杖膜樊锣遍墒Unit_9_In_a_Manner_of_SpeakingUnit_9_In_a_Manner_of_Speaking In British diplomatic missions the day is treated as the National Day of the United Kingdom.
