Birmingham Commonwealth Games 2022 is hosting the 16th official Queen’s Baton Relay – a journey which brings together and celebrates communities across the Commonwealth during the build up to the Games. The Queen’s Baton Relay is set to travel through England for a total of 29 days, before finishing at the Opening Ceremony for Birmingham 2022 on July, 28.

Kicking off on Thursday, June 2, the Baton will spend four days in London, coinciding with the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee Weekend. The Baton will then resume its international journey and return to England on Monday, July 4, to commence a 25-day tour of the regions.
