The state visit will be held at Windsor Castle
The Prince and Princess of Wales will play a major role when France’s President Emmanuel Macron and First Lady Brigitte Macron travel to the UK for a state visit next week.
Prince William and Kate, both 43, will greet the Presidential couple at RAF Northolt as they arrive, and travel with them to Windsor.
There will then be a formal welcome from the King and Queen at the Royal Dais on Datchet Road, Windsor as a royal salute is fired in the Home Park in Windsor, and at the Tower of London.
The President and Mrs Macron will join the King and Queen, and the Prince and Princess of Wales in a carriage procession through the town to Windsor Castle.
