In addition to the pomp and pageantry, President Trump is also expected to be be greeted by thousands of protesters during his state visit to the UK.
A rally will take place in London on Tuesday, timed to coincide with Trump's meetings at Downing Street. Activists plan to "follow" Trump from Trafalgar Square towards Downing Street, or any other locations he visits.
Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn has encouraged people to attend the demonstrations and voice their opposition to Trump's views, saying on Twitter that the protests are "an opportunity to stand in solidarity with those he's attacked."
"This is about sending a strong message that people in the UK don’t accept the divisive right-wing policies that Trump stands for and that inviting him for a state visit is totally inappropriate," the Stop Trump Coalition, which is organizing Tuesday's protest, said.
During Trump's visit to the UK last year, mass protests took place in the UK's capital and across the country.
Since this trip is occurring during the week, rather than at a weekend, turnout numbers may be lower this time, but one defining feature of those protests will be back: the Trump Baby blimp.
The 20-foot-tall balloon depicting the President as a wailing baby in a nappy will fly over London again during the march.
"Trump Baby destroys his fantasy about how the world sees him," one of its creators, Leo Murray, told CNN in April.
