Guests, including the wax Prince and Princess of Wales on the red carpet, were entertained with a Changing-of-the-guards show and performance from Sydney Bagpipers. Wax Harry was spotted some distance away in the crowd, while Meghan was notably absent. 

“What fun to have attended the royal reveal today. Although I wasn’t invited to the coronation, this had to be the next best thing. The resemblance is startling. I wasn’t sure if I should curtsey when I approached the King’s wax figure,” joked Ron Arosa, a guest attending the ceremony.

From 4^th May, wax King Charles III will join Prince William and Princess Kate Middleton of Wales in the newly refreshed Royal Academy, an interactive experience ‘fit for a King’!

Complete with brand new regal theming including a throne and sceptre, visitors to the attraction will be able to brush up on their royal etiquette and feel as if they have stepped inside the royal palace alongside His Majesty King Charles III.
