King Charles and Queen Camilla prepare for Royal Week
The King and Queen will attend a series of engagements in Scotland this week as Royal Week begins.
Charles’ first engagement takes place in the gardens of the Palace of Holyroodhouse, where he’ll receive a Royal Salute and inspect a guard of honour provided by Balaklava Company, 5th Battalion Royal Regiment of Scotland.
He will then be formally welcomed to the Scottish capital with the Ceremony of the Keys, in which Lord Provost Robert Aldridge will present the keys to the City of Edinburgh to the monarch, who will return them for safe keeping.
On Tuesday, Charles will preside over an investiture ceremony at the Palace of Holyroodhouse, before he and Camilla host guests at a garden party at the palace, alongside the Duke of Edinburgh and the Princess Royal.
On Wednesday, Charles will visit Jedburgh in the Scottish Borders, where he will watch a procession taking place as part of the town’s Jethart Callant festival. He will also be invited to start the annual game of hand ba’, a street sport that has been played in the town every year since 1704.
