And for many, it will be bring back memories of when they met him during his visit to Sunderland in the 1990s.
It was 25 years ago when Prince Charles came to Pennywell and the National Glass Centre.
He met Sunderland’s oldest resident at the time as well as plenty more locals.
Two years earlier, he spoke to locals outside Sunderland University, Pennywell shops and community college.
