The fund can be used to pay for bunting, signage and decorations and to assist with the implementation of road closures and traffic management.
Councillor Andrew Day, Leader of Warwick District Council, said: “Her Majesty The Queen has selflessly served the country and the Commonwealth for an incredible 70 years of her life.
"This unique moment in history is worthy of a fantastic celebration, and I’m delighted that the Council can offer its help and support to ensure that our residents can come together and celebrate, particularly after what has been a difficult couple of years.”
