ROYAL VISIT TO AUSTRALIA
His Majesty The King will be visiting Australia from 10 to 18 October 2024.
During the Royal Visit, His Majesty will meet with Australian government and business leaders, and with Bhutanese living in Australia.
Bhutan and Australia have enjoyed a close relationship since the early 1960s, when Australia helped Bhutan secure its first membership in an international organization, the Colombo Plan. Australia also supported Bhutanโs membership to the United Nations. Education and strong people-to-people ties have strengthened the growing partnership between the two countries, with Australia now hosting the largest community of Bhutanese living abroad.
His Majesty will visit Sydney on 12 October, Canberra on 13 October and Perth on 16 October 2024, to meet with the Bhutanese people. Bhutanese across Australia are invited to the nearest city on these dates, to be part of the Royal Audience.
The Royal visit reflects His Majestyโs deep care and concern for Bhutanese abroad, including the diaspora in Australia. Thus, it will be a priority during the Royal Visit to accommodate every Bhutanese wanting to be part of the Royal Audiences.
The Royal Bhutanese Embassy is pleased to inform Bhutanese living in Australia that registration for Royal Audiences in Sydney, Canberra and Perth has opened in Bhutan App. Please register early to secure tickets in the city of your choice.
