Bermuda to Welcome King Charles III on Landmark First Visit as Sovereign

Bermuda is set to take centre stage this spring as King Charles III makes his first official visit to the island as Sovereign. Taking place from 30 April to 2 May 2026, the visit marks a significant moment for the British Overseas Territory and its enduring relationship with the UK.  His Majesty’s last official visit to Bermuda was in 1970 to read the Speech from the Throne and open the 350th year of parliamentary government in Bermuda. This will be the first Sovereign visit in 16 years, following Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip’s visited in 2009 to join celebrations of the 400th anniversary of settlement, and comes some 73 years after they first visited the island in 1953.
