Default Event you look forward to the most?

Sweden has a lot of events that are yearly occurences. As a fan of the Swedish royals, which one(s) do you look forward to the most? Is it the Nobel gala, Victoria's birthday or maybe something that hasn't been included in the poll?


The state visits, even if they don't take place with the exact same circumstances every year, have been included as it is something that usually happens yearly.

The poll has multiple choice for those of you who have a hard time deciding.

I think that the Nobel ceremony is definitely high on my list. As is Victoria's birthday.

I haven't been aware of the Stockholm Water Week before, but I'll definitely be on the lookout for it next year again.

The Nobel Prize and the gala, followed by the State Visits (all that bling-bling is so awesome)

I'm certainly looking forward to the Nobel ceremony and Victoria's birthday every year.
The King's Christmas speech is another event I hardly ever miss.

I voted for the event with most bling bling, so that would be the Nobel Prize ceremonies.

Another thing I enjoy to see is the birthday of the King. It is absolutely adorable to see all these small children walking up to their king with flowers in awe. And the royal ladies on the balcony gives a rather nice picture too, especially when they have the royal labrador/golden retriever next to them .
