Diamond Jubilee

The Diamond Jubilee is a street party in Varrock prepared for a royal visitor. In celebration, Varrock square has been filled with tables for a Jubilee feast, special commemorative stalls and Jubilee themed decorations.

A number of visitors have arrived in Varrock to mark this event, including characters such as Big Ben, Essjay, and Will Shakenspear. In addition, extra guards of Varrock are stationed around the city, along with special royal guards, to ensure everything is safe. The Varrock Bankers are on holiday, and their posts are being manned by the royal guards, giving them a well earned break.

There are a few special activities for players to take part in as part of the event, such as a search for lost corgis and a cryptic clue fest. Players taking part in these will receive special Jubilee themed prizes.

Various new NPCs are in Varrock during the celebrations:
 * Bang Ersenmash

Lost corgis
Minnie Coop has lost some of her Corgi dogs and needs your help to find them. The dogs will be scattered around Gielinor. By helping finding her dogs, you will get a cute little corgi as a pet permanently (you can also take them for a short walk in Varrock without doing Minnie's corgi hunt).

The locations of the dogs are:
 * Ardougne Market - In the middle of the market
 * Citharede Abbey - Near the dancers
 * Brimhaven - South of the Brimhaven docks.
 * Castle Wars - Near the Summoning obelisk or in the building.
 * Tree Gnome Stronghold - Near the entrance gate.
 * Paterdomus - Next to the trapdoor leading to the mausoleum on Varrock side.

For extended information on the locations, see the Minnie Coop article.

Cryptic Clue Fest
The Queen is soon to arrive but the procession is still not ready for the occassion. Big Ben, in charge of the procession, and his assistant, Essjay, need the player's help to make sure that all is ready in time. Essjay will give the player instructions in the form of the fourth Cryptic Clue Fest. The clue fest will start on 1 June, with clues being revealed on the RuneScape Official Forums.

Diamond Jubilee Souvenirs
Will Shakenspear has set up his stall, Diamond Jubilee Souvenirs in the north-west of Varrock square. He sells a number of celebratory items, including new Diamond jubilee souvenir hats and Diamond jubilee souvenir flags, as well as old favourites such as celebration cake, fireworks, confetti and more.

Exotic foods
Exotic Foods, the stall owned by Bang Ersenmash and found on the east side of the square, sells a number of exclusive British-themed foods: Cream tea, Coronation chicken sandwiches, Fish 'n' chips, Steak and kidney pie and Full breakfast.

Trivia

 * This event is a reference to the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II of United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
 * The stalls feature traditional British food, fish and chips, and corgis, the favoured pet dog of the British royal family.
 * In the Behind the Scenes teaser video for the Diamond Jubilee and the evolution of combat, Varrock appears to have been slightly graphically updated since the ground texture is different, the sword and shield wall decorations are updated, and the walls are slightly more textured.
