A warm welcome to Their Majesties King Charles III and Queen Camilla as they arrive in the United States! 🇬🇧🇺🇸
This marks His Majesty’s 20th visit to the U.S., and his first State Visit as King. This visit honours the American people as the nation marks 250 years of independence, and celebrates the friendship, shared values, and enduring ties that make the United Kingdom and the United States greater together.

Today would have been Queen Elizabeth II’s 100th birthday. 🤍
In honour of her extraordinary life, we’re sharing this video, revisiting her 1991 visit to Texas. The video focuses on Austin, one stop on a trip that also took her to San Antonio, Houston and Dallas.
When The Queen learned every major Texas city was led by a female mayor, she told then Governor Ann Richards: “Yes, I rather like that.”

A big Texas welcome to Richard Shackleton, our new Consul General for Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana, and New Mexico.
Richard takes the reins from Keith Scott, who has done an outstanding job for this region. Thank you, Keith, it has been a pleasure! 👏
Richard will be out across the region championing the UK-US partnership, driving mutual growth and prosperity, and strengthening the shared values that unite us on both sides of the Atlantic. Welcome, Richard! 🇬🇧🤝🇺🇸
The UK is America’s best business partner! 🇬🇧🇺🇸
From supporting 1.3 million American jobs to driving investment in 21 US states, the UK is helping create opportunity across the country.
And through new trade and economic deals, we are opening doors for businesses, farmers, ranchers, and producers on both sides of the
Atlantic.
That is what partnership looks like. #GreaterTogether
West London came to Austin, and the energy was unforgettable. 🔥🎶
For the first time, West LDN Carnival took over #UKHouse bringing the music, movement and multicultural spirit that defines Britain’s creative DNA.
With live DJs, masquerade dancers, live performances and Caribbean flavors, we celebrated the cultures that have shaped the UK and influenced the world.
A reminder that culture builds bridges 🇬🇧 🇺🇲

Highlights from this weekend at #UKHouse 🇬🇧➡️🇺🇸
We had a great kickoff in Austin, back at #SXSW with UK House, bringing together founders, creatives, marketers and investors from both sides of the Atlantic.
Looking forward to what the rest of UK House has in store including an electrifying lineup at @thebritishmusicembassy and a very special West LDN Carnival event on Monday.
If you’re at SXSW, stop by and say hello!
Two incredible days at #UKHouseatSXSW — and that was just the beginning.
From AI and science to storytelling, gaming and music, the programme brought together global leaders shaping the future of media, technology and culture.
We were honoured to welcome the First Lady of Texas, Cecilia Abbott, and the Mayor of Austin, Kirk Watson, alongside an incredible lineup of speakers — and even gave audiences a first taste of what’s to come with a teaser of the West LDN Carnival, bringing a touch of London’s iconic celebration of music and culture to Austin.
Audiences experienced everything from conversations on AI for Science and the global growth of the Premier League, to immersive storytelling, the powerful presentation of Eric Whitacre’s Deep Field and John Grunsfeld, a former astronaut sharing perspectives on exploration and discovery, with the programme expertly moderated by Kate Hardcastle MBE.
Next up: West LDN Carnival takes over #ukhouse bringing the energy, music and spirit of London to #sxsw
