Read about the Governor’s Official Travel in May 2025
On 17 May 2025, the Governor departed on an Official Visit to Europe at the request of the Victorian Government.
The visit will see the Governor travel to France, Belgium, Denmark and the United Kingdom with a busy program of engagements across two weeks.
Engagements will cover a range of priority sectors including sustainable energy transition and MedTech, as well as significant military commemorations.
The UK and the European Union present important investment opportunities for Victoria, and represent major trading partners for our State.
International engagement has been a successive key responsibility of Governors of Victoria, and one that requires overseas travel with the support of the Government.
The purpose of these official visits complements international engagement at home by strengthening relationships, opening doors for Victorian businesses, and promoting the State’s economic, social and cultural interests.
Details of the Governor’s program will be published as official engagements are completed.
