It’s been confirmed that the Prince and Princess of Wales will attend the Royal Variety Performance at the Royal Albert Hall on Wednesday 19th November. 

The royal pair will watch a performance by the cast of Paddington The Musical, as well as watch pop star Jessie J and Grammy award-winning singer Laufey take the stage. Other names include the band Madness and Traitors star Sir Stephen Fry. It will be the sixth time William and Kate have attended the show, and the first since the princess’s recovery from cancer.

Featuring a live show of comedy, music, dance, magic and more, the Royal Variety Performance raises money for the Royal Variety Charity, which assists those who’ve worked professionally in the entertainment industry. In 2024, the Charity set up a dedicated team to assist those in entertainment who are in need of help and support because of mental health issues.
