Prince William and the Duchess of Cambridge are to visit New York for the first time next month.
The royal couple will travel to the US state in December in support of wildlife charities and to promote UK business.
Their trip will include a visit to the September 11 memorial, an NBA basketball game and a gala dinner at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
The visit will take place during the second week of December. William and Kate's last visit to the US was in 2011, for a trip to California.
During their trip, the pregnant Duchess will stay in New York, while the Duke will travel to Washington DC to visit the World Bank and discuss illegal wildlife trade.
The basketball game will be a collaboration between the Royal Foundation, United for Wildlife and the NBA.
