Prince Harry's visit to Dubai to be postponed
Published 04 March 2011
Prince Harry will no longer be making his planned visit to Dubai on 19th March. As a consequence, the Sentebale Polo Cup – scheduled to coincide with Prince Harry’s visit – has been cancelled.
Prince Harry was very much looking forward to the visit, but feels that it would be insensitive for him to participate in a sporting event at a time when there are matters of greater priority to focus on in the region. Prince Harry looks forward to other opportunities to visit Dubai in the future.
