King Charles III's coronation anniversary has been marked in London under soggy skies with ceremonial gunfire.

The King's Troop Royal Horse Artillery fire a 41 Gun Royal Salute in Green Park to mark the first anniversary of the Coronation of Britain's King Charles III and Queen Camilla , in London, Monday, May 6, 2024. Smoke blasted from the barrels of six large horse-drawn guns in a 41-gun salute in Green Park, next to Buckingham Palace, at noon. An hour later, three guns cracked off a 62-shot salute from Tower Wharf next to the River Thames.

Despite rainfall reminiscent of last year's coronation, visitors still turned out to watch the King’s Troop Royal Horse Artillery, with gunners in their gold braided jackets, fire off the salute as the Band of the Irish Guards played music in the park next to the palace. Manda Pillay-Maloney said that she visited the palace Monday — a holiday in the U.K. — to recognize the year since Charles was crowned.

“Excited, happy to be here," Pillay-Maloney said. “It’s my first stop since I’ve arrived from Stevenage, just to ... pay my respects and say, hey, thank you ... you’re doing a good job.” Copyright 2024 The Associated Press.
