The royal trio stepped out on Friday, Dec. 5, with Kate Middleton at her annual carol service at Westminster Abbey in London. They arrived with Prince William, as Princess Kate was at the event early to greet guests, performers and volunteers before the service began — but Kate went out to greet her husband and children as they pulled up.

The family color coordinated in green and blue, with George’s tie matching his mom’s forest green coat dress. Louis, 7, and George, 12, matched their dad in suits, while Charlotte, 10, wore a navy dress with a neckline that echoed Kate’s recent Festival of Remembrance look.

Before heading into Westminster Abbey, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis added links of red paper to a “connection tree outside,” each having written their name on their link. The decoration was meant to symbolize the power of togetherness and the importance of connection with one another.

Inside the service, the three children joined the congregation in holding lit candles during a song performance.

The event is a rare outing for Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, marking their first joint public appearance as a trio since June at Trooping the Colour.

However, Prince George recently made his debut at the Festival of Remembrance at Royal Albert Hall in London, his first-ever Remembrance event. George and Charlotte also joined their parents at Wimbledon in July, and the young princess made another sporty outing alongside Prince William at the UEFA Women’s EURO 2025 final match between England and Spain later that month.

This isn’t the royal siblings’ first time attending the event. Prince George and Princess Charlotte first joined in 2022, while Prince Louis made his debut at the Christmas service the following year, all attending annually since.

The Princess of Wales, 43, spearheaded the first “Together at Christmas” service in 2021 as a way to thank those across the U.K. who gave back to their communities during the coronavirus pandemic. The holiday carol concert has become a tradition every year since.

While Prince William and Princess Kate work to give their kids as much of a normal childhood as possible despite their royal upbringing, they pop up at a few family events each year.

Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis will likely join the royal family again on Christmas as they make their annual walk to church, which is followed by greeting members of the public. George and Charlotte made their Christmas Day debut in 2019, and Prince Louis joined for the first time in 2022 — and they often head home with small gifts like stuffed animals, flowers and treats from well-wishers.
