Regal Review: Crown Prince Frederik's 50th Birthday - Pre-Birthday Events

Tomorrow, Crown Prince Frederik will celebrate his 52nd birthday and we will cover the gala dinner Queen Margrethe hosted for her son’s 50th birthday back in 2018. But today, our Regal Review series takes a look back on three events that were hosted the week before Crown Prince Frederik’s 50th birthday as Denmark celebrated its heir.

On May 18th, 2018, Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary hosted a dinner at Frederik VIIIs palace to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Crown Prince Frederik Fund.

Mary wore a Temperley London black gown with her Cartier gold bracelet.


On May 23rd, 2018, Crown Prince Frederik hosted a reception for his patronages on the royal yacht Dannebrog and Crown Princess Mary was pictured arriving on the Dannebrog to join him after the reception as the couple was expected in Aarhus later that day to celebrate Frederik’s birthday.

In Aarhus, the Crown Prince couple visited Njord Gin and Film City Aarhus and took their time to meet the people who had been waiting for them.

When she arrived on the Dannebrog, Mary wore a new dress by Apiece Apart with her Yvonne Koné sandals and Ralph Lauren bag. She also wore new Ole Lynggaard earrings, her Cartier bracelet and her Orit Elhanati necklace.

In Aarhus, Mary wore her Temperley London white lace dress with Prada nude pumps and a Naledi Copenhagen nude clutch. She kept her Orit Elhanati necklace and Cartier bracelet she wore earlier that day and she wore a bespoke Susanne Juul headpiece.


On the evening of May 23rd, on their way back to Copenhagen from Aarhus, the Court shared a photo of the couple on the Dannebrog.
