Paul McCartney will be one of many famous names to perform at the Queen's Diamond Jubilee concert this coming Monday.
Those performing include McCartney, Elton John, Stevie Wonder, Tom Jones, Jools Holland and Shirley Bassey.
Also featured will be Robbie Williams, Grace Jones, Will-iam, Gary Barlow, Lang Lang, Alfie Boe and Rennee Fleming.
The concert, a celebration of The Queen's 60-year reign through music, will be attended by Her Majesty the Queen, His Royal Highness the Duke of Edinburgh and other members of the Royal Family.
It will be held in the Queen Victoria Memorial at Buckingham Palace. Those attending will be able to explore the garden and enjoy a free picnic before the show. They won't be able to go inside Buckingham Palace, however.
The concert is set to begin at 7.30 p.m. and is expected to last roughly three hours. It'll conclude with the lighting of the National Beacon around 10:45 p.m. A ballot in February was used to determine distribution of tickets.
The concert will be broadcast live on BBC One, BBC One HD and on BBC Radio 2 in the UK. U.S. viewers will be able to watch highlights of the concert on ABC the next day.
The two-hour concert special, "Concert for the Queen: A Diamond Jubilee Special With Katie," hosted by Katie Couric, airs from 9 to 11 p.m. ET/PT Tuesday.
