The Taumafa Kava or the Traditional Installation Ceremony of Kings will be held on Wednesday 30th July 2008. This Ceremony is steeped in Tongan culture since the inception of the Kingdom of Tonga.
Royal Charity Concert - His Majesty has designated for all proceeds from any commercialisation of the Coronation to be donated to a Charity established specifically to address health research for diabetes in particular and other life style diseases in general.
Coronation Rugby Match - this is an important event as it highlights Tongan heritage players who have reached the apex of their professional rugby career and who have represented national teams including Australia, New Zealand, England, Japan and the USA. This reflects that Tongans have a natural ability for the sport of rugby and through their profession they have been able to attract to His Majesty's Coronation, internationally reknowned rugby players.
