King's Christmas message held in Westminster Abbey
The Independent
|December 24, 2025
King Charles will deliver his Christmas broadcast from Westminster Abbey this year, centred on the theme of pilgrimage.
It marks his fourth festive message and the second staged outside a royal residence.
The historic central London landmark is a site of pilgrimage, home to the tomb of Edward the Confessor. Edward, who reigned for 24 years before dying in 1066, was canonised in 1161, with his shrine attracting pilgrims for centuries.
The broadcast was filmed within the Abbey's Lady Chapel, a late medieval construction built for Henry VII, the burial place for 15 kings and queens.
