Felipe VI y Letizia to visit Ceuta y Melilla after the Fiesta Nacional

Felipe VI and Queen Letizia will visit Ceuta and Melilla on 13 and 14 October. The trip, agreed between the Government and the Casa del Rey, will begin the day after the Fiesta Nacional. The Delegación del Gobierno in Melilla has confirmed the dates and highlighted the institutional support represented by the visit.

This will be Felipe VI's first trip to both autonomous cities since he ascended the throne in 2014. The previous visit by the Spanish monarchs took place in November 2007, when Juan Carlos I and Sofía visited Ceuta and Melilla.

The detailed schedule has not yet been published. The events, meetings, and planned routes for the two days are still to be announced.
