King Charles Hosts Historic France State Banquet Windsor Castle

News summary

King Charles and Queen Camilla are hosting a state banquet at Windsor Castle in honor of French President Emmanuel Macron and his wife, Brigitte, marking the first such event at Windsor in over a decade. The Princess of Wales, Catherine, will return to royal duties by attending the banquet, her first major engagement since undergoing cancer treatment. The visit represents a significant diplomatic occasion as Macron is the first EU head of state to visit the UK since Brexit, with discussions planned on defense, security, and migration, alongside a UK-France Summit. The banquet will be held in the historic St George's Hall, featuring a 50-meter table and speeches by both the King and President Macron, with around 160 guests attending. This event at Windsor Castle is part of a temporary shift from Buckingham Palace for state visits due to ongoing renovations, and it serves as a potential model for the upcoming state visit of US President Donald Trump. Additionally, a miniature portrait of King Charles, painstakingly crafted by artist Elizabeth Meek, will be featured, symbolizing the significance of the event.
