Prince William and Kate Middleton are upping their social media game.

After the Coronation Concert at Windsor Castle, the Prince and Princess of Wales's official social media channels shared an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the event:

In the video, you can see William and Kate with their two eldest children Prince George and Princess Charlotte arriving in the royal box to watch the show. Charlotte, wearing an adorable Self Portrait dress, carries her jacket in her arms as she holds onto her mom's hand. Kate, for the occasion, chose to rewear a red Alexander McQueen suit she first wore to launch her "Shaping Us" campaign. The video gives royal watchers the only glimpse of the shoes she chose for the night—Gianvitto Rossi red suede pumps.

The behind-the-scenes video also features shots of the crowd waving Union Jack flags, and clips of performances by Olly Murs, Nicole Scherzinger, Katy Perry, Lionel Richie, Calum Scott, Pete Tong, Lang Lang, and Take That.

In addition, Prince William's tribute to his father King Charles is highlighted. "A huge thank you to everyone for making it such a special evening," he says, and then the music fades out as he says "King, country, and commonwealth." The 30-second clip ends with a shot of the Wales family taking in the concert from their seats in the royal box.

Both Prince George and Princess Charlotte seemed to enjoy the concert—at one point, cameras caught the young princess singing along to Katy Perry.
