An inter-agency task force has been established after Cabinet endorsed the logistics for the State Visit to Fiji by His Majesty King Tupou VI and Her Majesty Queen Nanasipau’u, of the Kingdom of Tonga, from 8 July 2025 to 12 July 2025.

Cabinet says in recognition of the shared heritage and deep historical and cultural ties between Lau and Tonga, the Head of Mataqali Vuanirewa, Tubou Village, Ratu Tevita Uluilakeba Mara had extended an invitation to His Majesty King Tupou VI and Her Majesty Queen Nanasipau’u to the installation ceremony for the Sau Ni Vanua Ko Lau and Tui Lau.

Their Majesties have since accepted the invitation to the installation ceremony that will take place on Thursday 10 July 2025, in Tubou Village, Lakeba, Lau.
