Royal wedding: Pub hours extended for celebrations

Pubs will be allowed to stay open later than usual to give everyone a chance to celebrate Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's wedding.

Licensing hours can be extended over a "celebration period" to mark an occasion of exceptional international, national or local significance.

It means pubs and bars across England and Wales can keep serving until 1am on the morning of the wedding day, and again after the couple are married.

The wedding takes place on 19 May.

Hours will be extended to 1am, instead of the usual 11pm, on the nights of Friday 18 May and Saturday 19 May without pubs having to apply for an extension.
