Default GD Couple's Silver Wedding Celebrations (30 June - 1 July 2006)

Does anyone have detailed program of the silver jubilee festivities that will take place in Luxembourg in a little more than a week?

I would very much like to get a glimpse at the royals attending...since I am from Luxembourg it would be a "one-time-chance" form me.

According to the Danish Royal Calender Prince Frederick and Princess Mary will be attending the festivities.

Another question: Is there a calender of events for the Grand Ducal family?

This is exciting - another opportunity for us to 'feast' on galore of pictures of various royals!

Is Prince Felipe attending alone - that's a shame, for it would have been wonderful to see Pss Letizia

Also, i can't wait to see the gala dinner (if they hve one) the gowns the ladies will wear and the jewels - hope it'll be a tiara event!

Will only Haakon and Mette-Marit represent the Norwegian Royal family?
Or will King Harald and Queen Sonja attend the SilverWedding, too?

Friday: Gala performance at the theatre.
Saturday: Opening of the MUDAM museum and in the evening a private party at Berg Castle
(source; Stig at BRMB)

Some of the guests will only attend the 2. day of the celebrations.
As for tiaras, 5 years ago there was also a concert at the Music Conservatorium and this was the dresscode, black tie, no tiaras and very little bling bling Its funny to see how they have all changed in those 5 years, most have married and had both 1, 2, and 3 children (in or out of wedlock) Its a pitty Victoria and Charles is not comming, otherwise all the heirs would have been there.
