King Charles III and Queen Camilla of the United Kingdom are expected to visit Front Royal on Thursday, headlining the town’s 250th anniversary celebration with a brief parade down Main Street, according to information on the town of Front Royal’s website.
The royals are expected to attend the celebration, which town officials describe as a short, ceremonial event rather than a full-day festival, according to the town’s website. While there is no guarantee attendees will see the royal guests in person, officials are promoting the visit as a historic opportunity tied to the couple’s first trip to the United States as king and queen.
