The Princess Royal will visit the Citizens' Advice Bureau in the town centre, the Riding for the Disabled centre at Oakwell, and Horizon Community College.
Horizon principal Nick Bowen said: "It's great for Barnsley that the Princess Royal is visiting, and that she will visit Horizon, the biggest of Barnsley's fantastic new school buildings."
About 200 Horizon students will get to see the princess.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
