The coronation of King Charles III and Queen Camilla held in May last year cost British taxpayers £72 million ($91 million), an amount some have labeled excessive.
The Department for Culture, Media and Sport said in its annual accounts released Thursday that it had spent just over £50 million ($63 million) to coordinate the “once-in-a-generation” event, while the Home Office spent nearly £22 million ($28 million) on its policing.
