Grand Ducal Couple's Silver Wedding Celebrations: June 30-July 1, 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?

The calender on the Norwegian Royal Family's website says that Haakon and Mette-Marit will be attending.

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.

Isn't MT's birthday celebration planned during their wedding celebration?

I do hope the ladies glam it up a bit more than they did five years ago! I think Maxima, Mary, and Letizia will do a fine job of that!
Does anybody know if Philippe and Mathilde are going to cancel their trip to Luxembourg due to the sad circumstances in Belgium right now?

How amazing are the changes that the last five years have brought! Mette Marit looks so young (or rather not as stylish). She still is young :) No Maxima, Mary or Letizia (at least appearing in the official pics).
Whats' going on in Belgium?
