The visit will begin with a trip to the headquarters of supermarket Morrisons, in Bradford, and finish with their majesties conferring city status on Doncaster at Mansion House.
Lord Mayor of Bradford, Cllr Martin Love, said: "It is a terrific honour for Bradford to be among the first places that our new King will visit. We are looking forward to showing off our great city and introducing King Charles to some of the exceptional people from across our district."
Lord Mayor of York, Cllr David Carr, said: "To extend the traditional greeting to King Charles III on what we hope will be the first of many visits to York will doubtless be one of the highest honours of my career and my period in the great office of Lord Mayor of York.
"I am thrilled to be able to welcome him on what I am certain will be a day which combines great joy at his visit and reflection on the great service and legacy of his late mother, Queen Elizabeth II."
