Bolton welcomes King Charles III for historic 150th celebration
The Bolton community came together for a historic celebration, as King Charles III and The Queen Consort arrived to mark 150 years of our iconic Town Hall.
Boltonians flocked to Victoria Square to welcome the visitors, waving flags, and greeting the Royals during a walkaround with the crowd.
Children from local schools, Scouts, Cadets, and Guides lined the town steps with representatives from community groups, charities, schools, sports teams, and public services also present.
Commenting Mark Logan MP said:
What a proud day for Boltonians. Thousands flocked to Victoria Square to welcome His Majesty and Queen Consort.
It was a momentous occasion for both young and old - memories that will last a life time.
