The Prince and Princess of Wales are capping off their three-day visit to Boston with a glamorous awards ceremony at MGM Music Hall at Fenway that will recognize environmental heroes from around the world.

In the black-and-white shots of rehearsals, William smiles and Kate is seen walking across the stage.

“Considerable amount of attention has gone into the show,” says Hannah Jones, CEO of the Earthshot Prize. The ceremony will feature three acres of plants, including New England-grown mixed evergreen and deciduous trees, on the green carpet and at the show.

All the flowers have been grown within 100 miles of the MGM Music Hall and will be donated to local community-based organizations after the show. The green carpet is the same one that was used at last year’s show 2021 and will be recycled after the event. All energy use is being monitored and there is no single-use plastics.
