It's now been revealed the 93-year-old will visit Royal British Legion Industries in Aylesford.

In 2015 The Queen visited Canterbury Cathedral and Capel Le Ferne.

The world's longest reigning monarch visited Maidstone in 2011, meeting Gurkha Engineers at Invicta Barracks.

Accompanied by the Commanding Officer of 36 Engineers, Lt Col Simon Hulme, Her Majesty inspected the troops and met the 5,000th Queen's Gurkha Engineer, Spr Bal Budha Magar.

Later that year Her Royal Highness was joined by the Duke of Edinburgh at the Turner Contemporary in Margate.
