The UK defence ministry said batteries will fire 41 rounds at one round every minute from midday in cities including London, Edinburgh, Cardiff and Belfast, as well as Gibraltar and from Royal Navy warships.
Gun salutes also marked the deaths of Queen Victoria in 1901 and Winston Churchill in 1965.
Authorities are encouraging to watch the gun salutes online or on television from home amid the coronavirus pandemic.
Prince Philip died Friday at age 99.
