The Ruby Jubilee of Elizabeth II in 1992 marked the 40th anniversary of the accession of Queen Elizabeth II on 6 February 1952.[1][2] Contrary to her Silver Jubilee in 1977, it was not regarded as an "official" jubilee.[3] However, the milestone was marked with a number of events and community projects.[4]

Despite the heading of this article the term 'Ruby Jubilee' was not officially, nor indeed more generally, used in 1992; rather the occasion was referred to as the '40th Anniversary of the Queen's Accession'.[5]
