Their Majesties The King and Queen will undertake State Visits to the Holy See and the Republic of Italy in early April 2025.
During Their Majesties’ State visit to the Holy See, The King and Queen will join His Holiness Pope Francis in celebrating the 2025 Jubilee Year. Traditionally held once every 25 years, the Jubilee is a special year for the Catholic Church; a year of walking together as ‘Pilgrims of Hope’.
During Their Majesties’ State Visit to the Republic of Italy, The King and Queen will undertake engagements in Rome and Ravenna, celebrating the strong bilateral relationship between Italy and the United Kingdom.
Further details of Their Majesties’ programmes in the Holy See and Republic of Italy will be announced in due course.
