Each year the New Zealand High Commission is allocated a limited number of invitations or tickets for New Zealand citizens to attend Royal Events in the United Kingdom.
Information on how and when to apply for Royal Events is provided below.
Due to the limited number of invitations or tickets available, the High Commission runs an electronic ballot for all events. Applications can only be made through this website via an online form.
Due to the current outbreak of COVID-19, the Buckingham Palace Garden Parties have unfortunately been cancelled for 2020.
Buckingham Palace has advised that this year’s attendees will be able to attend next year. No further details are available as yet, however when official guidance is provided to us, we will forward it to this year’s successful applicants.

Due to the current outbreak of COVID-19, and in the interests of public safety, there will be no public audience this year. Those who applied for tickets through the New Zealand High Commission will be able to apply again in the future.
