Prince Edward's visit to meet university students and school children has been rescheduled for next month.
The Prince had been due to visit in January, but freezing fog at the last minute made travelling by helicopter unsafe and his trip was cancelled.
Now the Earl of Wessex has confirmed he will visit on June 7 to officially open De Montfort University's £8 million Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee leisure centre, in Duns Lane, Leicester.
He will tour the facilities before meeting a host of sports societies who say they are already benefiting from being able to train there.
University vice-chancellor Professor Dominic Shellard said: "The leisure centre is a fitting legacy of her majesty's Diamond Jubilee tour, which began here at the university.
"It's an honour to welcome the Earl of Wessex to our university a year later."
He will also visit John Cleveland College, in Hinckley, on the same day, where he will meet students studying for the Duke of Edinburgh Award, created by his father.
In recent years a record number of students at the school have achieved the bronze, silver, and gold awards.
Dick Beaumont, the school's DofE coordinator, said: "Pupils were naturally a bit disappointed when the visit was cancelled in January, but they were very philosophical about it and are looking forward to meeting him in just over a month's time.
"They're very excited and of course there's a bit of trepidation there, too.
"This is a real feather in the cap for the group and a great opportunity to raise awareness within the local community about the positive work being done with young people that helps to equip them with real life skills for adulthood."
In addition, the Prince will visit North Warwickshire and Hinckley College's £12.8 million creative arts campus, in Hinckley, to talk to staff and students about the work they are doing there.
Marion Plant, joint principal of North Warwickshire and Hinckley College and South Leicestershire College, said: "We're very much looking forward to welcoming Prince Edward to our campus, as our creative arts offer goes from strength to strength. This visit is a fantastic opportunity to demonstrate the positive impact of the high quality, vocational education and training delivered by our college.
"Students and staff are busy preparing for his visit which will include a student performance as well as time spent with students in a number of different teaching areas where they can show examples of their work and talk about their experiences and aspirations for the future."
