Crowds have been told by the New South Wales government where to see the royal couple after the service, and it is likely the royal couple will meet some wellwishers.

On Saturday, a rest day for the couple, an image was released of the royals showing the King and Queen Camilla after they arrived on Friday at Admiralty House, the official residence of Australia’s governor-general, who represents the King in the country.

The couple were said to be touched by Sydney Opera House, which can be viewed from Admiralty House, being lit up with a rolling projection of images of them.

The King’s trip has been marked by his appointment to the honorary ranks of Admiral of the Fleet, Field Marshal, and Marshal in the three services of the Australian Defence Force.

Elsewhere, the Association of Commonwealth Universities, of which the King is a patron, has announced the launch of the King’s Commonwealth Fellowship programme.

It has been developed in response to urgent economic, social, and environmental challenges affecting small island developing states.

“There is so much we can learn from one another as we work together within the Commonwealth to tackle the major challenges of our age and, as these fellowships do in small island developing states, to address them where they are felt most acutely,” the King has said.
