Hosted by the British High Commission, in partnership with The British Asian Trust, the gala will raise funds for three charitable organisations- Magic Bus, Doorstep, and Childline. Prince William and Kate will meet the representatives of the organisations earlier that day.
Preparations have begun with Amit Chowdhury, the executive chef of Taj, reports Pinkvilla. He will personally design the lavish dinner spread which will include an array of Indian delicacies.
Before the star-studded evening kicks off, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge will lay a wreath at the 26/11 memorial inside the hotel and meet the brave hearts among the staff who helped protect guests during the 2008 attacks. They will then proceed to the Oval Maidan to watch a cricket match.
Prince William and Kate Middleton will fly to Delhi the next day to attend a birthday party for Her Majesty The Queen at the residence of the British High Commissioner for her 90th birthday.
