Queen Elizabeth's coffin will be moved from the Palace of Holyrood House to St Giles' Cathedral in Edinburgh in a procession along the Royal Mile. King Charles and other members of the royal family will take part in the procession, and attend a service of prayer and reflection in the cathedral.

Before flying to Scotland from London, the king will visit Westminster for the first time as monarch. He will attend a meeting of both Houses of Parliament, and receive condolences from the Lords and the Commons.
