The Queen will spend Christmas at Windsor Castle and will not travel to Sandringham, as is customary.
Buckingham Palace has confirmed the decision, which Sky News understands was a personal one and was made after careful consideration.
Family members will be visiting Windsor during the festive period and reasonable precautions will be taken.
The Queen and her family usually walk from their Sandringham farm in Norfolk to a local church on Christmas morning.
This is the Queen’s first birthday since the Duke of Edinburgh’s death.
Her Majesty and Prince Philip spent Christmas Day together in Windsor last year without the rest of the family.

It emerged last week that the Queen decided to cancel a traditional pre-Christmas lunch with other members of the royal family amid fears of a spike in coronavirus cases and the arrival of the Omicron variant.
The 95-year-old hosts the event every year for her extended family, and plans are reportedly all set in Windsor.
The Queen generally invites her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren to join her at Buckingham Palace before leaving for her annual Christmas stay at Sandringham.
The palace is undergoing major renovations at the present time.
Last year’s meeting was also canceled due to the COVID-19 crisis.
