The young heiress to the Spanish throne, Princess Leonor, is currently immersed in her training at the Naval Academy, where she is undergoing rigorous training as part of her preparation to one day assume the role of queen.
However, her schedule is far from being limited to military requirements, as her royal engagements indicate that there are important events coming up that she will have to attend.
Princess Leonor’s Schedule of Royal Duties
October is shaping up to be a particularly busy month for Princess Leonor, who has several important appointments that require her presence.
One of the most notable events will be on October 12, when she accompanies her parents, the King and Queen, in the celebration of Columbus Day.
This will be the second year that she participates in these events since the beginning of her military training.
In addition, the princess will not miss the reception following the parade, which will be held at the Royal Palace.
This occasion will also mark her second participation in this event, although it is important to note that she will not be able to share it with her sister, Infanta Sofia, who is in Wales continuing her studies.
Princess of Asturias Foundation Awards
The third week of October will be especially significant for Leonor, as the Princess of Asturias Foundation Awards Ceremony will take place.
This year, the princess will preside over the event for the first time after coming of age, suggesting that there could be changes in the organization and protocol of the ceremony.
Despite her new independence, she is expected to be accompanied by her parents, King Felipe and Queen Letizia, as well as her sister and Queen Sofia.
The day before the awards gala, Leonor will be decorated with the Medal of Asturias.
Although all the details about this event are still unknown, it is expected that the princess will attend alone, as she did previously when she received various awards during her training at the General Military Academy.
19th Birthday Celebration
Finally, at the end of this month, the heiress will celebrate her 19th birthday.
Unlike last year, no official events have been scheduled to commemorate this date, as it has no institutional relevance.
Therefore, barring any unexpected changes, it is likely that the princess will spend her day with her classmates at the Naval Academy.
Princess Leonor’s schedule reflects her commitment not only to her military training but also to the responsibilities that come with her position as a future queen.
As she progresses in her preparation, it is clear that her role in the royal family will be strengthened as she balances her duties with her personal life at the Naval Academy.
