King Charles and Queen Camilla to visit Australia and Samoa

“In close consultation with the Australian and New Zealand prime ministers, and with due regard for the pressures of time and logistics, it has therefore been agreed to limit the visit to Samoa and Australia only,” the Palace said in a statement.

This will be the King’s first visit to Australia as Monarch. It is also his first official overseas tour since his cancer diagnosis.

In Samoa, they will attend the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting.

In Australia, their programme includes visits to the Australian Capital Territory and New South Wales.

The couple are expected to attend the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (Chogm), which brings together delegations from the 56 countries in the Commonwealth.

Further details of the visit to the two countries are expected to be announced shortly, and the couple’s programme and schedule changes will be subject to doctor’s advice.

The 75-year-old monarch last visited Australia in 2018 with the Queen for the Gold Coast Commonwealth Games.
