Details on Prince William’s rare outing with the Duchess of Edingburgh

As you may already know, the Duke of Cornwall (Prince William) and the Duchess of Edinburgh will be making a joint appearance today for a very exciting royal engagement—and we thought we’d share some details ahead of time.

The duo will be attending the Royal Cornwall Show to celebrate Cornish heritage through agriculture, food, and entertainment. The show, which has been running for over 200 years, is organised by the Royal Cornwall Agricultural Association and aims to promote agriculture and related industries.

Their Royal Highnesses will begin their visit at the Food and Farming Pavilion, which showcases local artisan producers. After that, they will carry out separate engagements.
