The Royal Family in Australia

From Bondi Beach surf carnivals to Parliamentary openings, explore some rare footage from our collection of the Royal Family in Australia.

Australia has celebrated many significant milestones with the Royals since the Duke and Duchess of York landed on our shores in 1927, including the very first visit by a reigning monarch in 1954 and the Silver Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II in 1977.
