Britain’s King Charles III and Queen Camilla are greeted upon their arrival at Sydney International Airport in Sydney on Friday for a six-day royal visit to Sydney and Canberra.
The sails of the iconic Sydney Opera House were illuminated on Friday night with a photographic tribute to welcome King Charles and Queen Camilla, as they arrived in Australia on the first visit by a reigning British monarch in 13 years. The royal couple arrived in Sydney on a Royal Australian Air Force plane on Friday evening, and were greeted on the tarmac by Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, Australia’s governor-general Sam Mostyn and the premier of New South Wales state Chris Minns. King Charles carried an umbrella and chatted with the welcoming party, as rain cleared for the royals’ arrival. The couple later met with Albanese and his partner Jodie Haydon at Admiralty House, a historic government foreshore residence overlooking Sydney Harbour and the opera house, where they will stay. “Their Majesties have a deep regard for Australia, and this visit will be an opportunity to showcase the very best of our modern and dynamic nation,” Albanese wrote on social media platform X, posting a photograph from Admiralty House.
