Monarch King Charles III pays a visit to the U.K. branch of tech giant Apple.
On December 12, 2024, His Majesty King Charles III made a historic visit to Apple's U.K. headquarters, located at the iconic Battersea Power Station in London. The visit marked a continuation of Apple's growth in the United Kingdom, building on more than 40 years of history in the country.
During the visit, King Charles was welcomed by team members from across the country. He joined Apple CEO Tim Cook for a series of meetings with Apple employees, members of the British creative community, and students who have learned coding skills from Apple and U.K.-based nonprofit The King's Trust.
The special day also featured a holiday concert by award-winning British musician RAYE. To add a touch of local flavour, children from St. George's Primary School created holiday artwork on iPad, which was then projected onto the power station's famous chimneys.
Apple expressed pride in supporting The King's Trust and its work in educating and empowering young people. The company has been a strong supporter of the charity, which aligns with Apple's commitment to education and community involvement.

The Battersea Power Station, which has served as Apple's U.K. headquarters since 2023, provided a fitting backdrop for the visit. The historic building has undergone a significant transformation since its decommissioning, becoming a symbol of innovation and creativity in the heart of London.
This visit underscores the strong relationship between Apple and the United Kingdom, and Apple's continued commitment to supporting the local community and creative industries.
