Thousands of people are expected to welcome Charles III to Cardiff on his first official visit to Wales since becoming King. The monarch travel to the capital with the Queen Consort for a service to remember Elizabeth II on Friday, September 16, before visiting the Senedd and Cardiff Castle and meeting members of the public.
It will be the first time that the former Prince of Wales has visited Wales since the death of the Queen. His visit will see him travel to Llandaff Cathedral on Friday morning for a service of prayer and reflection to commemorate the life of his mother, while he and the Queen Consort will also meet with charities at the castle after receiving a Motion of Condolence from the First Minister in Cardiff Bay.
Preparations are being made across the city ahead of the new King's arrival, with council workers out in force this week, resurfacing roads, filling in potholes and weeding and cleaning streets and pavements. You can read more about the measures that have been put in place here.
