There were opportunities for members of the public to meet or see Their Majesties at St Thomas’ Church, North Sydney on Sunday, 20 October and at the Sydney Opera House Forecourt on Tuesday, 22 October.
The visit also included a Fleet Review on Sydney Harbour, featuring an Australian Defence Force fly past. The King and Queen, accompanied by the Governor-General, Chief of the Defence Force, and Chief of Navy, boarded a vessel to conduct an on-water review of His Majesty’s Australian ships Hobart, Warramunga, Arunta, Gascoyne, and Yarra, which were anchored in the harbour.
