The King emeritus Albert II of Belgium led The King's Day church service at the Cathedral of St. Michael and St. Gudula in Brussels, accompanied by his two children, Princess Astrid and Prince Laurent, and son-in-law, Prince Lorenz.

Also in attendance are government and different sectors representatives, but no King Philippe? Many have wondered why King Philippe, Queen Mathilde, and their children didn't attend the service.

According to Brussels Times, The King's Day is celebrated in Belgium to honor The King but tradition dictates that the (reigning) King never attends The King's Day celebration as he "does not celebrate himself".

The King's Day in Belgium coincides with the name day of Leopold and Albert, the traditional names of Belgian kings. It's not a public holiday, but workers in Federal Government services and some other public services have a day off.

After the church service, King Albert II, Princess Astrid, and Prince Lorenz attend a ceremony at the Palace of the Nation, in the theme of "Growing together, pushing boundaries and experiencing unforgettable adventures".
