What Does King Charles Have Planned for His 75th Birthday? Here’s Everything We Know

The party will include an afternoon tea in addition to live music performed by a local rock choir. Then on Tuesday (his special day!), the king and his wife, Queen Camilla, plan to unveil their new initiative called “The Coronation Food Project.” Hello! reports that the project aims to “bridge the gap between food waste and food need” across the U.K.

Following the launch, Charles and his wife will host a reception at Buckingham Palace. And to close out the evening, His Royal Highness will have an intimate dinner with only close family members present. 

Sadly, his youngest son—Prince Harry—won’t attend the dinner because, according to multiple reports, the Duke of Sussex simply wasn’t invited to the family event.

Earlier this week, a royal spokesman released a public statement that shut down rumors about the Spare author turning down an invitation to his father’s birthday celebration. 

“In response to U.K. media headlines, there has been no contact regarding an invitation to His Majesty’s upcoming birthday,” the unnamed spokesman said, per E! News. “It is disappointing the Sunday Times has misreported this story.”

Let the festivities begin.
