The Royal Family will all be gathering at Sandringham for their Christmas celebrations in less than a week, which appear to require a lot of thought when deciding what to pack for the trip.
King Charles is preparing to head to Sandringham where he will welcome his family for the annual royal Christmas celebrations. The festivies range from formal to fun, with a black-tie dinner on Christmas Eve and after-dinner games after a turkey feast on Christmas Day, and of course watching the monarch’s Christmas message.
One part of royal Christmas that fans always look forward is the annual walk to church on Christmas morning, which also sees the Firm greet wellwishers who turn out to see them. Last year, fans gathered couldn’t wait to talk to the Princess of Wales, who was conducting her first real walkabout after returning to duties following her cancer diagnosis and treatement.

As ever, she was joined by Prince William and their three children Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.During the outing four years ago during the walk, it appeared that Kate colour-coordinated the family’s outfits, and they all looked very smart in dark green.
And while fans around the world loved their style, it turns out that Kate really regretted her outfit choice for the day, and even told one well-wisher she “really shouldn’t have worn it”. She looked stunning in a heavy grey Catherine Walker coat, with a green hat, bag and heels. But during a quick chat with 19-year-old fan Rachel Anvil, she admitted it was the wrong choice for the unseasonably warm weather.
Rachel’s mother told Metro, “I really shouldn’t have worn this,” when Kate was talking to my daughter about how she was feeling too hot. My daughter and Kate are talking about fashion, and I’m talking to Charlotte about dolls there. It was genuine conversation that was tailored to my daughter, not fake.
A family lunch with turkey and all the trimmings is typically held at the end of the royal Christmas. A morning visit to St. Mary Magdalene Church is typically followed by a greeting from well-wishers.
Kate’s annual Christmas carol concert at Westminster Abbey officially began the countdown to Christmas for her family at the beginning of the month.
Before the service began, the princess arrived at the abbey without her family, and she was greeted by some of the stars performing or reading, including Katie Melua, Chiwetel Ejiofor, and Kate Winslet, a singer from Hollywood.
She explained to Bastille’s lead singer Dan Smith that her children were eagerly anticipating the service, saying, “It’s become such a tradition.” Later, during the service, the royal children were pictured holding candles with the rest of the churchgoers.
A “Connection Tree” decorated with paper chains bearing the names of the guests was where the family made a stop outside the Abbey’s magnificent west door. The children added their names as a reminder of how important it is to have meaningful conversations.
The service recognized individuals from all over the UK who may have given their time to others, spearheaded initiatives that unite their local communities, or offered a helping hand to those who are in need.
On Christmas Eve, ITV will stream the Together at Christmas service.
