BOSTON — Prince William and Princess Katherine’s three-day tour in and around Boston ends Friday night with the Earthshot Prize ceremony at Boston’s MGM Music Hall.
The crowd started to line the street early Friday as they prepared the Green Carpet for all the celebrities who have arrived for the Earthshot Boston 2022 Awards show.
Boston Mayor Wu, Governor Baker, John Kerry, Shailene Woodley, Catherine O’Hara, and David Beckham are among the VIP.
The Earthshot Prize offers $1.2 million in prize money to each of the winners of five separate categories: nature protection, clean air, ocean revival, waste elimination and climate change.
The winners and all 15 finalists also receive help in expanding their projects to meet global demand.
Prince William and Princess Kate are scheduled to announce the winners on Friday night as part of a glitzy show headlined by Billie Eilish, Annie Lennox, Ellie Goulding and Chloe x Halle. The show will also feature videos narrated by naturalist David Attenborough and actor Cate Blanchett.
