President of Azad Jammu and Kashmir Muhammad Anwar Khan would be the chief guest on the occasion.
The conference is expected to be attended by Kashmiri leaders from Europe, America and Indian occupied Kashmir.
Many British MPs and member of European Parliament were expected to attend it, President of Tehrik-e-Kashmir UK Muhammad Ghalib told APP here on Monday.
The Kashmir conference was scheduled to be held in London in February but had to be postponed due to death of the President of Kashmir Freedom Movement Dr Ayub Taukhar, he said.
