Katy Perry to Headline the Opening Night of Prince Harry’s Invictus Games in Vancouver

Katy Perry is gearing up to take the stage at the opening ceremony of Prince Harry’s next Invictus Games, set to kick off in February 2025.

The highly anticipated event will be held in Whistler and Vancouver, Canada, showcasing the incredible resilience of disabled military veterans from over 30 countries.

The Invictus Games' official account recently confirmed the news on X (formerly Twitter), sparking excitement among fans of both the "Firework" singer and the Duke of Sussex’s inspiring initiative.

A Star-Studded Neighbourhood in Montecito

Katy Perry shares more than the stage with Harry — they’re practically neighbours. She and her fiancé, actor Orlando Bloom, reside in Montecito, California, just a stone’s throw away from Harry and Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex.

The famous families seem to share a warm relationship, with Katy and Orlando reportedly attending the third birthday celebration of the couple’s daughter, Lilibet with their daughter!
