U.S. President Donald Trump’s state visit to the U.K. kicks into gear on Wednesday, with the White House leader and his wife Melania due to arrive in Windsor Castle as the guests of King Charles III and Queen Camilla.
Expect pomp, pageantry and the best of British tradition over the next two days, as the U.K. seeks to deepen its long-standing “special” relationship with the U.S. — beyond all the business deals that have already been announced.
The Trumps will be accompanied by the Prince and Princess of Wales, William and Kate, as they head to Windsor on Wednesday. The White House couple will be greeted by the British monarch and his wife, with royal gun salutes fired at the castle and at the Tower of London.

The president and his wife will then join the royals for a carriage procession through Windsor, accompanied by mounted cavalry and military bands. The party will inspect a guard of honor at Windsor Castle and will later witness a flyby performed by U.K. and U.S. F-35 military jets and the Red Arrows.
A state banquet will follow this evening, with Brits ready to roll out all the glittering royal splendor they can muster for the occasion. King Charles and President Trump will both make speeches at the dinner.
We’ll be adding the best pictures of day two as Trump’s visit unfolds, so check back for further updates.
