The visit from the royals is part of a year-long celebration marking Queen Elizabeth's 70-year reign as Queen of Canada and there will be all kinds of fun events and activities in Newfoundland and Labrador, Ottawa, and the Northwest Territories.
According to the government, the tour will show off Canada's beautiful landscapes as well as the "warmth and hospitality" of the people in the country.
"Their Royal Highnesses will meet with a diverse range of communities, hear their stories, and experience their rich traditions and culture," said the press release.
"It will be an opportunity to highlight Canada’s rich military history, raise awareness of the impacts of climate change, and showcase innovative initiatives being developed to support local communities."
This is far from the first time the couple have visited the Great White North. They were last here in the summer of 2017 to celebrate Canada's 150th year of Confederation, which was Charles' 19th trip to the country and Camilla's sixth.
Details of what exactly the pair will be getting up to will be released closer to their visit!
