Straight up, I didn't watch the live coverage of it. There were mentions of the 4,000 military personnel involved, but only a few shots during the live broadcasts.

There's a lot of good stuff that has come out on YouTube about the marching bands and such. People don't realize how much planning, coordination, and practice was needed to make it a success.

First of all, the Fly Past.

I don't think many of the planes in this video ended up participating because of the bad weather, low cloud cover and visibility. Just too risky, but some made it. Nice shots of the historic aircraft squadron, though.

Finally the Coronation Concert from the eye level of those who were there. The military bands that backed the performing musicals are called out here, too.

The graphics on the circular video board was also displayed simultaneously on the wall of Buckingham Palace as well. Then there's image of bird formed by programmable drones.

Pretty incredible stuff!!
 
In my experience the best marching Army in the world. When I was in Bosnia I would often watch their evening parade formation.
