Duke Street in downtown Kingston is set to be transformed this Thursday as members of parliament, senators, members of the judiciary, and the business and religious communities travel to Gordon House for the ceremonial opening of Parliament for the 2016-2017 parliamentary year.

The Gleaner's Norman Grindley captured images of the preparations being carried out to ensure a flawless show.
