  1. Her actual birthday is in April, but her official birthday is

    celebrated in June, when the weather in London is usually

    better for the ceremony of Trooping the Colour on Horse

    Guards parade.


  2. Its April 21 same day as my brothers

  3. The Queen Elizabeth II's birthday is on April 21st. However, the Queen celebrates her birthday twice a year. One is her actual birthday which is on April 21st, and the second one is known as "The Queen's Official Birthday", which is celebrated as a public holiday in several Commonwealth countries. The word "Queen" in the name of the celebration is replaced by "King" when appropriate. The exact date of the celebration varies from country to country, and it does not usually mark the real birthday of the sovereign.

    In the United Kingdom, the Queen's Official Birthday is now celebrated on the first, second, or third Saturday in June, and is marked in London by the ceremony of Trooping the Colour, which is also known as the Queen's Birthday Parade. Trooping the Colour is a military ceremony performed by regiments of the Commonwealth and the British Army. It has been a tradition of British infantry regiments for centuries and it was first performed during the reign of Charles II. Since 1805 the ceremony has been carried out on the British Sovereign's birthday, which since King George VI has been regularly held on a Saturday in June.

  4. Its the 21st of April.

  5. Her Majesty was born at 2.40am on 21 April 1926 at 17 Bruton Street in Mayfair, London.Her father and mother were then The Duke and Duchess of York,later becoming King George VI and Queen Elizabeth,The Queen Consort.

  6. Her actual birthday is 26th April and she will be 82 this year.

    Her birthday is officially celebrated in most English speaking countries outside the USA, on varied dates, ours in Victoria Australia is the 9th of June, which makes a good holiday in the middle of our cold months, as we don't get any others from Anzac Day (Memorial Day) until the Melbourne Cup which this year is on November 4.

    Unless you are a school teacher of course, holidays for two weeks in March/April, two weeks in June/July and two weeks in Sep/Oct.
