Crowds have been gathering outside Cardiff Castle since early on Friday in the hope of catching a glimpse of KIng Charles and the Queen Consort. The royal couple are expected to attend a reception at the castle on Friday afternoon.
There are several hours still to wait and Cardiff Council has offered advice to those planning to travel to the castle for the event. You can follow live updates throughout the day of the royal visit here.
WalesOnline reporter John Jones has also been queuing through the night to be one of the first people into the grounds today. You can follow his experiences here.
