About 40 times a year, the UK Royals host group investitures ceremonies at one of the royal residences. Most people receiving an honor were given it as part of the Monarch’s Birthday or New Year Honor Lists.
Investitures are usually held at:
- Grand Reception Room at Windsor Castle
- Throne Room at Buckingham Palace
- Throne Room at Palace of Holyrood
Regular Investitures
This list just includes the regular group investitures. About 70 recipients are invested at each ceremony. One-on-one investitures or investitures held overseas are not included.
