Not in Telemadrid ? I asked for that but I don't know the habit of Telemadrid for this kind of event?
Not, Telemadrid is the public television of the Community of Madrid, only it took charge of the official visits of the Princes to cities of the Community, but it does not take charge of other acts that are celebrated in Madrid. In case of the visit to Atocha, due to the relation between the church and the city, the sign of the act was granted to Telemadrid, but they had to distribute it simultaneously to all the televisions.

Don Juan Carlos and Dona Sofía will receive in their official residence the prime minister, Jose Luis Rodríguez Zapatero and the rest of the Executive; to the presidents of the Congress, of the Senate, of the General Council of the Judicial Power, of the Account court and of the Constitutional Court; to the members of the Council of State; to the chairwoman of the Community of Madrid, Esperanza Aguirre, and to the mayor Alberto Ruiz-Gallardón.
I would love to see all kids but the dinner starts at 19.00, wouldn't it be too late for them (at leat for youngest girls)?
Good point. But if they just pose for a fotoshoot with the whole familiy around 18.00, then afterwards, they can take the children home, or at least to some bedrooms at Zarzuela, and they can have dinner! :) That would just be great. I remember in 2004, there was also a fotoshoot with all grandchildren, I just don't know at what time it was.

Several things.
It is a small receipt with a cocktail, not a dinner. If it was a dinner not it be up to 21 o'clock (and it would be early).
Calm, the 19.00 it is a very normal hour in Spain, at this hour the girls still will be awake. Besides the children already are of vacations, until 22.00 it is not by night and it is hot.
We are a night country and more in summer. Possibly now the small girls until 9 p.m. do not go away to the bed, and the rest they can go later because already they do not have to get up early to go to the school
