Pupils from surrounding schools waved Scottish and British flags, along with townsfolk from across the Borders and across Scotland.
And the crowd was even made up from visitors as far as Italy who headed to the town for the opportunity to see the monarch.
One passer-by came from closer to home, but has devoted her entire life to the activities of the Royal Family.
Sheila Clark, from Glasgow, travelled through early in the morning and arrived at 7am to ensure that she had a good spot.
She said: “I just wanted to see the King while he was in Scotland.
“I’ve been following the Royal Family for all my life really and I take photographs and I like to pass over a photo. I love a visit to a town like Jedburgh.
“I was in Selkirk three years ago when he was there – the atmosphere, the community spirit.
“I think the King does a fantastic job.
“I followed his late mum, I follow the King and I hand over photographs, he knows who I am and he does recognise me which is lovely.
“I did have an excellent day, although I didn’t get to speak to him, I could see him and could see everything that was going on.
“It looked like a really good visit for the town.”
