Victoria Day - Crown Princess Victoria's Birthday, Pre-2002

[Helen_]

I only know pictures from Victoriadagen 2001, 2002 and 2003. But what was in 1978? Did Victoria attend "her day"? I mean, she was only 1 year old.
Does anyone have pictures of the Victoria-days 1978-2000?

 

[Josefine]

i think these pictures are from her first victoriaday

My goodness she sort of resembles her mother. For a split second I thought the queen was her!

Those pictures aren´t really from the victoria day.. They are from Solliden, when she and her parents said hello to the people that had gathered outiside of the palace.. just like they still do every year.
I think Victoria started to attend the victoria day in Borgholm in 1983... before that it was the king who handed out the prize.

Victoria already had her nameday this year???????????

Or is Victoriadagen something else special??

 

[Josefine]

Victoria Dagen - The Victoria Day is the name of the event on birthday

 

[Duchess Sophie]

Ah, thank you Josefine, for clearing this up :flower:

 

[Yennie]

Victorias name day is march 12th.
But her birthday on July 14th is called "Victoria dagen", but mostly in the media and its the name of the celebrations on Öland.
It´s mentioned in the calendars as "the crownprincess´" birthday" and it is a flag day.

[Yennie]

what is this for.......is it tradition when you turn 18?

no,no.. she got the frog as a present and made a joke and kissed it. I think she said something like "if I kiss it will my prince show up" something like that
At the time the tabloids wrote many stupid articles about her so-called boyfriends and perhhaps she wanted to joke with them
