King Charles III to make historic visit to Australia in October

·

Following His Majesty King Charles III’s cancer diagnosis in January this year, a Royal Visit to Australia has been announced for October.

This trip will mark King Charles’ first official visit to Australia as reigning monarch and the first of its kind since the late Queen Elizabeth’s visit in 2011.

During his trip, King Charles will visit New South Wales and the ACT. He will also travel to Samoa in order to attend the 2024 Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting.

A Buckingham Palace representative said His Majesty’s program in both countries “will be subject to doctors’ advice, and any necessary modifications on health grounds.”

“The King’s doctors have advised that such an extended program should be avoided at this time, to prioritise His Majesty’s continued recovery,” the representative added.
