BUILDINGS and landmarks in Rhyl will glow red, white and blue to celebrate the 74th birthday of King Charles III.

Rhyl Sky Tower, Rhyl Pavilion Theatre, 1891 Restaurant and Bar and the Events Arena waterfall will all be lit up on Monday, November 14 in honour of the monarch. Ruthin Craft Centre will also be lit up. 

Jamie Groves, managing director at Denbighshire Leisure Ltd, said: “Denbighshire Leisure Ltd lit buildings every year to mark the birthday of Queen Elizabeth II, and we are proud to continue this custom by lighting up in red, white and blue for King Charles. 

"Everyone at the company would like to send His Majesty our very best wishes”.  

King Charles is expected to mark his birthday privately today (Monday).

He became king after the death of the Queen on September 8.

Charles spent the day before his 74th birthday leading the nation in honouring its war dead during the annual Remembrance Sunday service at the Cenotaph.

His floral tribute to the fallen left at the memorial in Whitehall featured the words “In memory of the glorious dead. Charles R”.
