Catherine, The Princess of Wales and Prince William will join forces with King Charles and Queen Camilla in just days as a united monarchy.

The King and Queen will lead senior members of the Royal Family at Westminster Abbey next Monday for the annual Commonwealth Day Service of Celebration.

Their Majesties will be accompanied by the Prince and Princess of Wales, marking a significant gathering of working royals for the occasion.

Princess Anne and her husband, Vice Admiral Sir Tim Laurence, are also confirmed to attend, alongside the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester.

A congregation of 1,800 people will fill the historic abbey for the event, which this year takes its inspiration from the 2026 Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting theme focusing on accelerating partnerships and investment.

Prince Edward and Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh will not be present at the service, as the couple are expected to attend the Winter Paralympics in Milan.

The ceremony celebrates the Commonwealth of Nations, a grouping of 56 independent countries bound together by principles outlined in the Commonwealth Charter.

These shared values encompass commitments to democracy, human rights, rule of law and equality, serving the organisation’s 2.7 billion citizens worldwide.

The Royal Commonwealth Society organises the annual service, bringing together diplomatic representatives, young people and prominent figures from creative industries to demonstrate the Commonwealth’s strength through its unified yet diverse membership.

The service will showcase several significant artistic moments, including the debut performance of the Commonwealth Symphony, a new work by composer Rekesh Chauhan.

A specially commissioned dance piece will bring together students from the Royal Ballet School with performers from Sapnay Entertainments Ltd., fusing classical ballet with Bollywood styles.

This collaboration represents what organisers describe as a powerful expression of cross-cultural partnership, embodying the theme of collaboration that defines the modern Commonwealth.
