State Visit to Windsor by His Majesty Sultan Haitham bin Tarik, Sultan of Oman

About

His Majesty Sultan Haitham bin Tarik, Sultan of Oman will pay a State Visit to the United Kingdom, hosted at Windsor Castle by His Majesty The King and Her Majesty The Queen, from Tuesday 20 October to Thursday 22 October 2026.

The Royal Borough is working closely with Thames Valley Police, the Royal Household and other partners to support the visit and minimise disruption for businesses, residents and visitors.  There will be an enhanced police and security presence in Windsor in the days leading up to and during the state visit. We encourage everyone to remain vigilant and report any concerns to a police officer, online, by calling 101, or in an emergency, 999. 

Road closures and parking suspensions will be in place on Monday 19 October (for the procession rehearsal) and Tuesday 20 October (for the actual procession). 

Full details of access restrictions and road closures are now live on RBWM's State Visit page and this will be regularly updated.

We will share more details as we are made aware of plans, so do keep checking this page nearer to the time, and follow us on our social channels on Facebook or Instagram - @VisitWindsorUK.
