His Majesty King Charles III and Queen Camilla’s State Visit to Washington DC will include an historic first military review, according to a detailed schedule released by the White House.
President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump will welcome the longstanding allies from across the pond on Monday and host the royal couple until Thursday, according to the East Wing release.
“Drawing upon a tradition that dates back to the 18th century, the President and First Lady will proudly mark the official arrival of Their Majesties with a traditional military arrival ceremony,” the release stated.

This will mark the first ever Pass in Review at the White House and also be the first White House event involving a Space Force Honor Guard formation, a rep for the First Lady explained to The Post.
The review will feature the US Army Fife and Drum Corps and will be watched by the VIPs from the Blue Room of the White House.
American military families will be part of the official US delegation which also includes representatives from the United Kingdom and students from the British International School of Washington.
After the military ceremony ends, King Charles and Queen Camilla will sign the guest book of the White House — and then Trump and the king will break off into a bilateral meeting, the release detailed.
The high-powered couples will then take in a very British tea time in the White House Green Room before touring the newly unveiled White House beehive on the South Lawn.
That beehive is a miniature version of the White House and is home to four colonies of honey bees who produce their amber gold for the residence and guests, the First Lady announced this week.
On Tuesday, President Trump and King Charles will hold more bilateral meetings while Camilla and Melania participate in an Artificial Intelligence educational event with students at the White House Tennis pavilion.
Charles and his second wife will then leave Washington to make stops in Virginia and New York City.
While in the Big Apple on Wednesday, the king plans on meeting with Mayor Zohran Mamdani at the 9/11 Memorial, where Charles will lay a wreath in honor of those killed in the 2001 Islamic terror attacks.
