The nation will celebrate 70 years of the Queen on the throne over a four-day bank holiday from 2 to 5 June.
In England, councils are "pulling out all the stops" after being overwhelmed with requests for road closures, says the Local Government Association.
According to the LGA's estimates, about 16,000 street parties are set to take place.
BBC News has spoken to three Jubilee street party organisers to see how their preparations are going.
Self-described royal fan Becky Norman says she has mounds of bunting in preparation for the street party she has organised for Friday in Hull.
Kilnsea Grove will be closed and taken over by child entertainers, food and even a special singing performance by Becky herself.
The charity worker, who has been planning the party since the beginning of the year, says: "All the decorations are going up this weekend.
"I've even got a massive cardboard cut-out of the Queen.
"For me personally the whole country should be backing her - she's never stood down and she's never not been there."
