All Tasmanians are welcome to come and celebrate the remarkable life of Her Late Majesty.

The Rt Revd Dr Richard Condie will share a message on The Promise of the Queen’s King, and The Honourable Alan Blow, Chief Justice and Lieutenant Governor of Tasmania will share a tribute to Her Late Majesty.

The Choirs of St David’s Cathedral and All Saints South Hobart will perform. The bellringers of St David’s Cathedral will ring the muffled bells following the service. The death of the Sovereign is one of the rare occasions when fully muffled bells are sounded.
