Charles will make his first royal visit to Australia as king after it was confirmed he would land on our shores in October, alongside wife Camilla.
Details on their Autumn tour itinerary are light at this stage, although the King and Queen’s program does include engagements in the Australian Capital Territory and in New South Wales, the palace has confirmed.
They will visit at the invitation of the Australian Government and will also head to Samoa for the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting.

The King has visited Australia 16 times, the last of which came in 2018.
“I am honoured to welcome the King and Queen on their first royal visit to Australia later this year, they are always welcome visitors,” Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said.
“The King has a deep regard for our great nation and has always spoken warmly of the time he has spent here and the astounding beauty of our extraordinary continent.
“I look forward welcoming The King and Queen back to Australia for this important visit.”
Charles, 75, returned to public-facing engagements in early May after being diagnosed with cancer in February.
A Palace spokesperson said Charles’ doctors had advised against extending his travel program so he can instead prioritise his recovery.
