Prince Harry Announces Canada Trip, Overlapping with Prince William’s Royal Week in Brazil
Prince Harry is set to visit Canada in early November to participate in Remembrance Day events, coinciding with Prince William’s Earthshot Prize activities in Brazil.
Remembrance Day in Canada
The Duke of Sussex, aged 41, will travel to Toronto to attend a series of commemorative events related to Remembrance Day, the British counterpart of Veteran’s Day in the United States. The day holds deep significance for the royal family, who have honored it across generations.
William’s Earthshot Week in Brazil
Meanwhile, Prince William, aged 43, arrived in Rio de Janeiro on November 3 as part of the Earthshot Prize’s fifth cycle. The initiative, founded in 2020, encourages global solutions to urgent environmental issues. His week-long visit will culminate in the Earthshot Prize Awards Ceremony on November 5 — the same day Prince Harry is expected to make appearances in Canada.
Clarification on Timing
PEOPLE understands that the events the Duke of Sussex is attending were planned nearly a year ago, and the timing of the main event is determined by the charity, not by Prince Harry.
