The King was joined by some of his closest friends and family members for his private birthday dinner at Clarence House.
Pictured leaving Charles's London residence on Tuesday evening were the Prince and Princess of Wales, Princess Beatrice and Zara and Mike Tindall, who all put on a glamorous display.
Kate looked stunning, donning a glittering emerald Needle and Thread gown, while William looked suave in a tuxedo.
The King's niece Zara looked gorgeous in black LBD with glittering pearl accents, which she wore for the relaunch of Rebecca Vallance in Harrods earlier in the day.
She held hands with husband and former rugby star Mike as they left the royal residence.
Meanwhile, Princess Beatrice appeared to be wearing a velvet number as she waved from behind the wheel of her car. She did not appear to be joined by husband, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, who turns 40 later this week.
Beatrice's mother, Sarah, Duchess of York did not appear to be among the guests, but she shared an image of King Charles on Instagram to wish him Happy Birthday.

The 61-year-old, who has been homeless for periods of his life since a teenager, joked afterwards: "He gave me cash, that does prove something – he does carry money."
