There will probably be a carriage procession on jubilee day. Id like to know if all of the royal family will be escorted in carriages( like on national day) or if it'll be just the king and queen. If the rest of the family will be in carriages will madeleine and Chris have their own carriage, since the on normal on occasions the siblings and daniel will be in the same carriage bit with chris i don't think there will be space.

That question will probably already come up on National Day. I think better would itbe that Vicotira and Daniel as the Crown Princess Couple have their own carriage or that they sit in the same as the King and Queen.
 
For some weeks ago it become public that the Jubilee will be celebrated with an exhibition at three of the Royal Palaces. At the Royal Palace the exhibition "40 år på tronen - 40 år för Sverige" ("40 years on the throne - 40 years for Sweden") will be opened on September 13th and continue until January 5th, 2014. At Drottningholm and Gripsholm Palaces there will also be exhibition on the theme of the Jubilee.

When the king's cousin - Queen Margrethe of Denmark - celebrated 40 years on the throne last year, she had a grand gala celebration in three days. It will not happen in Sweden.
- The king is investing instead very much on this round trip (county visits). It is much more important to him, explains Bertil Ternert from the court press department.
King and Queen's tour of Sweden runs until September 11. The last stop will be Jamtland - a special visit to the king:
- The King's dukedom and that's where the king made his first county visi in 1974, declares Annika Sönnerberg from the court press department.
