Best Answer

There is no Queen of England, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II is Queen of The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

Like everyone else, she only has one birthday - the anniversary of the day she was born, which was 21st April 1926.

Following a tradition started by her grandfather, King George V, the monarch's birthday is celebrated in June, with a military parade, bestowing of honours and other events.

This is simply because the weather in London is usually better in June.,

According to the link below this custom dates back to 1748.

the queen has two birthdays because she has a real one and a fake one. On her real birthday, there is no particular ceremony held, butthe union flag is flown on public buildings.

Since 1805, the Sovereign's 'official' summer birthday has been marked by the Trooping The Colour Ceremony, which is also known as the Queen's birthday parade, and is normally held on the second Saturday in June.

The Queen's actual birthday is 21st April 1926: this is a private celebration and not celebrated publicly. However, the Queen also takes part in a major event called the Queen's Official birthday, which includes trooping of the colour and all the pomp and ceremony that befits the occasion. It is celebrated on the first, second or third Saturday in June. The actual date varies each year and in each country that takes part in the 'Official' celebrations.

Well, no. The queen of England has a normal birthday, like everyone else on this planet, but she also has an official one at another time of year when the weather is better for celebrating.
