Premier Brad Wall announced that Their Royal Highnesses The Prince of Wales and The Duchess of Cornwall will visit Regina on May 22 and 23 to celebrate Her Majesty The Queen's Diamond Jubilee with the people of Saskatchewan.

"On behalf of our province, I would like to personally welcome Their Royal Highnesses to Saskatchewan, and would encourage all residents to help celebrate this unique occasion."
While in Regina, The Royal Couple will participate in a centennial celebration at the Saskatchewan Legislative Building and tour First Nations University. They will also attend a performance by the Regina Symphony Orchestra of which His Royal Highness is a Royal Patron.
