THOUSANDS of street parties are expected to be thrown over the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee bank holiday weekend.

Councils across England have received “a huge number” of applications from residents eager to celebrate the monarch’s 70-year milestone, according to the Local Government Association (LGA).

Many councils have waived administration fees for road closures, of which there were 9,500 during the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee in 2012, the LGA said.

A snap poll of a dozen councils by the LGA showed they have approved more than 1,000 street parties.

Dozens are also expected to take place across County Durham.
