Platinum Jubilee: Celebrations end with Platinum Pageant
- Published
Leading the way in front of Buckingham Palace was the military parade closely followed by the Gold State Coach.
That's not the Queen inside, but a hologram of her majesty on the day of her coronation back on 2 June 1953.
Crowds had been lining the streets ahead of the pageant with some people camping in tents in order to secure the best spot.
These dancers performed in front of ribbons which together show the Queen as a young woman.
These special buses were decorated to show different decades of the Queen's reign.
This one is to celebrate the 1950s - the decade in which the Queen came to the throne.
Celebrities were waving from the top deck of each bus - did you spot fashionista Gok Wan and Olympian Sir Mo Farah?
There was even a puppet version of a group of corgis, the Queen's favourite dog, on hand to help celebrate the day.
Lots of people had street parties to celebrate the occasion - and these dancers certainly wouldn't have looked out of place if they appeared at one.
The Royal family, including the Duchess of Cambridge, Princess Charlotte, Prince George, Prince Louis and Prince William had front row seats to watch the parade.
As the parade went on Prince Louis joined the Duchess of Cornwall and his grandfather, Prince Charles, who kept him entertained by bouncing him on his knee.
There was certainly no shortage of colour on the big day!
These dancers brought some amazing moves to the parade.
This Bollywood wedding scene had endless colour and energy.
There were all sorts of incredibly decorated floats travelling down The Mall.
How many well known children's TV characters can you spot?
This float looks good enough to eat!
Many famous faces from TV also made an appearance, with survival expert Bear Grylls driving in the Pageant.
Bake Off judge Prue Leith sadly didn't have as elegant an entrance, after the car she was in broke down and had to be pushed!
The Queen appeared on the Buckingham Palace balcony to mark the end of the Platinum Jubilee celebrations. She said she was "humbled and deeply touched" by the support she had received across the UK.
