Recently Frederik hosted a small dinner for selected guests prior to the Danish Maritime Forum.
The dinner took place in the smaller dining room at Frederik VIII's mansion at Amalienborg and as such partly at home in the private part of the mansion.
The guests were a number of top brass from the international maritime trade and they were recieved by Frederik in a reception room next to the dining room. - And our reporter also notes that this room is now well (and tasteful methinks) furnished.

Thanks Polyesco,
Here article and gallery from the dinner at Royalista: http://royalista.com/da/49015/kronpr...ow/image/49022
Frederik's upcoming events today and tomorrow will reflect the Global Green Growth Forum as well. Tonight for example he will host a dinner in Frederik VIII's Palace.
And then it's always nice to see the Crown Prince Couple with our Prime Minister. IIRC she has also been at a private dinner home at M&F. It would be a shame to say she's popular for her politics, but I've noticed a sentence there's repeated among people in the recent time "One can disagree with her politics, but she do has a nice personality," 
Aaand with Margrethe on official visit in Croatia it's Frederik, as usual, who is our Regent...

Thanks for the pics of Polyesco's Frederik.
Well, that is not a description I will subscribe to. - Alas, the next PM has a personality that is just as unlikable.

Thanks Polyesco
The BB article mentions that Frederik made a small royal surprise at the stage in connection with the presentation of the Gazelle Prize today. The winner of the big Gazelle Award as the year's fastest-growing company was Kiloo whose mobile game "Subway Surfers" is a megahit.
- Everyone who has tried to play "Subway Surfers" raise their hands in the air, said the host on stage. And while several hands in the audience raised in the air Frederik stood beside the host on the stage and smiled broadly as he lightning quick also raised his hand in the air and marked that he too is a "Subway Surfers" player. BB writes it led many to the polished business event to cheer of surprise with business-like veiling. Against this background it was quite liberating to experience Frederik's at the same time elegant and boyish style while he stood there and bristled with his finger on the stage 
"Subway Surfers" game is primarily aimed to the young audiences, so it's very likely that Frederik plays it in the company of Christian, Bella, Vincent and Phine.
Others who are familiar with this game? I play it (as Frederik apparently) almost daily with my two the oldest ones.
ADDED:
Comment seen on Facebook:
I was in a very crowded Falconer today and watched this. May I add that Frederik was received with a long/wide applause. He is fantastic. Although his role today at the Gazelle price 2014 was limited a large part of the Danish business community know that he and the royal family is doing their utmost to the promote Danish products.

Thanks for all those links and pictures of Frederik today
The pictures of Frederik as a shot putter is priceless 
Some of the articles tell us that Frederik's throwing was somewhat shorter than Joachim B. Olsen's (former Olympic shot putter) but long enough, though, that one of the photographers from the press almost had to jump aside.
Here is a nice HQ gallery from BT.dk

I actually went looking for Frederik today. My daughter goes to school at Absalon Skole which is one of the schools that are part of the new sports project (I don't remember which schools the two others are) and she was there along with 300-400 other schoolchildren today. So with the youngest one in the pram, I went looking for daughter and Frederik... But in vain... We couldn't find them. Neither Frederik, the 400 schoolchildren or the press. I do not have a clue of where on earth we have been when I see all these pictures from the event with people all over the place!!! A pity. We then went to the bakery and bought home a cake instead.
But daughter had a fun active day and she thinks Frederik was very cool ( vildt sej, in Danish), and judging from all these pictures of Frederik and his smile from ear to ear he had an excellent time too.

Apart from Mary and Frederik being genuinely popular among children and young, it is an undeniable fact that Frederik has a way with children.
We have seen that so many times, children walk up to him without hesitation.
You know, children and dogs have a way of reading people.

Oh my goodness! I'm amazed at the wearing of ties to go hunting. It must be a tradition. In the US, anyone wearing a tie would be laughed right out of the hunting party.
What is the function of the men in the green uniforms? I assume they are some sort of park supervisor. Is this hunt on private or public land?

That is very much tradition.
Among the old-school of hunters, hunting is a sport for gentlemen, so you dress like a gentlemen. While modern-school hunters dress fully in camuflage gear.
Short and simplified:
Old-school hunters adhere very much to the old traditions of hunting. I.e. the use of a hunting horn, the game parade, where you honor the game and blow a tune in respect of the animals. To that a certain dress code is very much preferred.
To them a hunt is an ancient ritual.
Modern-school hunters believe in becoming one with the nature, to become immersed with the surroundings and watching and enjoying the nature. To them a hunt is an nature-experience.
The men dressed in (hunters) green are either skovfogeder or skovridere http://dagbladet-holstebro-struer.dk...den-0#slide-17 and they are the equivalents to senior gamewardens/parkrangers/forresters. After all some 25 % of Denmark is now forest or woodland. From an alltime low in the 1600's when only 4 % of DK was woodland.
Klosterheden is a large piece of woodland in central Jutland and the home for at least of couple of wolves.
