Britain’s royal family has shared details about ‘Holyrood Week’, the first of new reign of King Charles and Queen Camilla after they were officially crowned in May.
According to palace, each year, the Monarch spends a week visiting a variety of regions in Scotland, meeting Scots from all walks of life and hosting thousands at the Palace of Holyroodhouse in recognition of their good work.
Known in Scotland as 'Royal Week' and to others as 'Holyrood Week', these visits celebrate Scottish culture, achievement and community.
‘Holyrood week’ normally takes place from the end of June to the beginning of July.
It always begins on the forecourt of Holyrood Palace with the Ceremony of the Keys. The King is welcomed into the city of Edinburgh, 'your ancient and hereditary kingdom of Scotland' by the Lord Provost, who offers him the keys of the city.
