Chorley’s Picnic in the Park: hundreds turn out to watch the Coronation of King Charles III on the big screen

Chorley’s popular Picnic in the Park returned to Astley Park last weekend with a theme fit for a ‘King’.

In celebration of the coronation of King Charles III, Chorley Council decided to move the family favourite to Saturday, May 6, allowing visitors to watch the historic event on a big screen. Park goers enjoyed their picnics with live entertainment for Louby Lou along with being able to watch the King being crowned.

Take a look at 25 pictures from the historic occasion.
