On May 6, 2023, the United Kingdom coronated Charles III and his wife Camilla. They were crowned King and Queen of the United Kingdom at a ceremony in Westminster Abbey. There were many archaic objects, old-age rituals, customs and wardrobes that were a part of the occasion, and that naturally brought out the best of Twitter.
The event also included a concert with performances from Katy Perry, Lionel Richie. Andrea Bocelli and Sir Bryn Terfel and others. Here were some of the best jokes we saw on Twitter celebrating the occasion.
