Prince Harry surprised students with an incredibly kind gift on Monday when he paid a visit to Seaforth Armoury in Vancouver.

The Duke of Sussex spent time with students, veterans and Invictus Games competitors as part of a school-based initiative designed to shift perceptions of service members, veterans, and individuals with disabilities.

At the end of their special day, Harry gave a speech and surprised the children with a ticket for themselves and a family member to attend the Invictus Games 2025 Opening Ceremony.

Harry's kind gesture came hours after he surprised fans at the Grey Cup ahead of the Toronto Argonauts’ clash with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.

Harry's moving speech

The Duke took to the stage and shared a heartfelt speech. "It's an honour to be back here with you. Meeting the kids today, seeing them learn about the Invictus Games has had a profound impact on me because this is where Invitus starts to go even wider into the community, into schools in Canada, and hopefully around the world" he said.

"I want all of you especially the kids here, and the young people to imagine what it's like for these individuals, for the challenges that they have overcome to be amongst team members again wearing the same strip, wearing the flag on their chest or their arm coming out into a stadium full of tens of thousands of people cheering them on.

He continued: "But ultimately it's the crowd, it's the audience, it's all of us that vibe the atmosphere for them. But for those of you that have a small bag, you should inside find a couple of tickets to the opening ceremony, so congratulations you're all invited to the opening ceremony.
