Princess Kate is getting ready for her yearly Christmas carol service, and this year’s event will include several famous guests. Kensington Palace confirmed that well-known actors and public figures will join the royal family for the celebration at Westminster Abbey on December 5.
The event, called “Together At Christmas,” is now in its fifth year. Princess Kate created the service to bring people together during the holidays and to honour those who help their communities. More than 1,600 guests from across the United Kingdom have been invited. Many of them were chosen because they made positive contributions to their neighbourhoods, schools, charities, or workplaces.
Some of the celebrities expected to attend include Kate Winslet, Hannah Waddingham, and Chiwetel Ejiofor. Their presence is meant to add extra joy to the service, which already draws large interest every year. The Abbey’s choir will perform classic Christmas carols, and there will also be musical performances and readings from special guests.
Prince William will also take part in the service. He is expected to read a passage during the event, continuing the royal family’s tradition of participating in the Christmas programme.
As usual, the service will be recorded and shown on ITV on Christmas Eve, giving people across the country the chance to enjoy the music and messages of the evening from home.
In addition to the main service in London, 15 community carol services will be held around the UK in December. These smaller events are supported by the couple’s charitable foundation and are designed to bring people together at a local level, especially during the holiday season.
Princess Kate’s Christmas carol service has become a special moment in the UK’s holiday calendar. With the mix of royals, celebrities, everyday heroes, and traditional music, this year’s event is expected to highlight kindness, unity, and the true meaning of Christmas.
