Princess Marie Visits Roskilde Festival

Denmark’s Princess Marie paid a visit to the annual Roskilde Festival today, but not to listen to the music. The Princess was there to visit the stalls and activities being run by her patronage, DanChurchAid.

She visited their refund stall, where cans and bottles are collected from festival goers and then recycled for money that is then donated to the organisation’s projects around the world. The Princess also visited the House of Rock, where a talk explained Denmark’s first surplus food store WeFood where profits go to assist hunger in poorer countries.

“It is important for me to see DanChurchAid’s work down here. It is the first time I am here and I am very proud of them,” Marie told the media during her visit.
