26 April 2012 - Queen Elizabeth II began a two-day tour of Wales to mark her Diamond Jubilee. She and the Duke of Edinburgh arrived in Cardiff on the royal train and drove to Llandaff Cathedral for a service celebrating her 60-year reign. A crowd of hundreds, including schoolchildren waving flags, cheered as she arrived in Llandaff.

More than 600 people attended the service of thanksgiving at Llandaff Cathedral, where the Archbishop of Wales Dr Barry Morgan praised the Queen's commitment to public life. Lessons were also read by First Minister Carwyn Jones and the Lord Mayor of Cardiff, Prof Delme Bowen, while prayers were read by representatives from the different faith communities in Wales. The visit to the cathedral was the Queen's fourth. Her first was in 1960 to a service to mark the cathedral's restoration following a bomb raid during World War II.

The royal party then travelled to Margam, to be followed by Merthyr, and on Friday by Aberfan, Ebbw Vale and Glanusk Park, near Crickhowell. The engagements are part of the Queen's UK-wide tour, which began in March.
