Children's Party at Buckingham Palace

Buckingham Palace is hosting a grand party to celebrate the Queen's 80th birthday and the world of children's literature. Eighty five much loved literary characters will be at the party including Paddington bear, Mary Poppins, The Snowman, Mrs Tiggywinkle and the Mad Hatter. The highlight of the event will be a special show which continues the classic story by Roald Dahl, the BFG. Dahl's granddaughter, Sophie will play herself and four of the leading characters from the Harry Potter films will also star. Don't worry if you haven't been one of the lucky 3,000 guests to secure a ticket, it is being broadcast live on the BBC1 so everyone can join in the fun.
