King Charles celebrates his 74th birthday, his first as monarch
King Charles is celebrating His 74th birthday, His first as monarch.
There are no public engagements planned and The King is expected to mark The Day privately.
It is too early in His reign for any announcement to have been made on whether The King will follow royal tradition of having a separate official birthday in the summer.
Since the 1700s, monarchs with a non-summer birthday have had a second tied in with the Trooping The Colour parade.
The date of Queen Elizabeth Ii 's official birthday was always scheduled for a Saturday in mid-June and saw The Announcement of the annual Birthday honours. Again, it has Not Yet been confirmed whether the same routine will be followed by the new King .
While there are no official events scheduled for him to attend, His first birthday as monarch on Monday will be marked by The Band of the Household Cavalry performing Happy Birthday during the Changing of The Guard ceremony at Buckingham Palace .
Gun salutes will be fired across London in honour of His birthday for the First Time , with The King 's Troop Royal Horse Artillery firing 41 volleys from midday at London's Green Park and The Band of the Scots Guards also set to perform Happy Birthday immediately afterwards.
The King 's Troop is a mounted ceremonial unit in the British Army that fires salutes on royal anniversaries and major events like state visits, as well as providing a gun carriage and a team of Black Horses for state and military funerals.
An hour later at 13:00 GMT the Honourable Artillery Company will fire a 62-gun salute at The Tower of London.
Although little is known about what he will be doing, King Charles has enjoyed a few memorable birthday celebrations in The Past .
Ahead of His 50th in 1998, the then Prince of Wales attended the recording of a star-studded televised birthday gala filmed at London's Lyceum Theatre to raise money for The Prince 's Trust charity.
It featured a special comedy sketch with Rowan Atkinson reprising The Role of Lord Blackadder from The Beloved comedy series and Stephen Fry playing the then Prince of Wales.
But perhaps The Most notable moment from the evening was Geri Halliwell , who had just quit the Spice Girls , singing Harry Birthday in a breathless style reminiscent of The Iconic rendition sung by actress Marilyn Monroe to US President John F Kennedy in 1962.
As Prince of Wales, he was sometimes away on official foreign tours during His birthday and would celebrate it overseas with a cake.
On His 70th, The King - His version of The Greek dish moussaka, but with grouse instead of Lamb .
