Tongan King's Coronation in August

Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea / Tonga

Hi,

Just for your information, Tongan King's Coronation will be on the 1st August 2008. Detailed programme is not published yet, but many of the major accommodation facilties in Nuku'alofa are already fully booked from the last week of July until the end of the first week of August by diplomatic missions from different countries.

Please take this into consideration when you make travel plan to Tonga around that time.

At the same time, the Coronation festivities are something you don't want to miss.

Cheers,
