There will be a Royal visit to Buckinghamshire next week.
His Majesty The King and Her Majesty The Queen Consort will visit Milton Keynes on Thursday 16 February to formally mark the newly conferred city status.
Further details on the Royal visit will be confirmed in due course to enable residents and other well-wishers to gather and welcome Their Majesties to the city. Milton Keynes City Council will publish further details of the visit on its website.
“We are delighted that The King and Queen Consort are able to join us to formally mark Milton Keynes becoming a city, and to meet some of the people who were instrumental in making it happen.
“We’ll be sharing some of the reasons we’re so proud of the city and explaining why our diverse and welcoming communities are so united by a love of where we live. said Milton Keynes Council Leader, Pete Marland.
Milton Keynes was named a city as part of celebrations for Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee in May last year.
