Some 20,000 members of the public and invited guests are set to attend in person, with the live event also broadcast on the radio and online.
Katy Perry, Lionel Richie, Take That and Andrea Bocelli are gearing up to perform for King Charles' Coronation concert, BBC confirmed.
A televised Coronation Concert is being held in the grounds of Windsor Castle, west of London, on May 7 - the day after Charles is officially crowned king. BBC chief content officer Charlotte Moore said the coronation was a "once-in-a-generation occasion" and called the concert line-up "world-class".
However, there have been multiple reports of a number of artists turning down offers to perform at the coronation including Adele, Elton John, Harry Styles and the Spice Girls.
They are said to have declined because of scheduling clashes or touring commitments. But the Mail on Sunday said singer Kylie Minogue had refused given increased republican sentiment in her native Australia, where Charles is also king.
