we started to celebrate Sveriges nationaldag (the swedish national day) in 1983. Before that it was just "Svenska flaggans dag" (the day of the swedish flag)
I think it was in 1983 that Victoria was with her parents for the first time...

What a nice thread, thanks to all for the pictures and videos. It's nice to see Princess Lillian in her younger days.

A video from Nationaldagen 1983. I believe this is the first time Victoria attended. But she's not wearing the traditional blue and yellow dress, something else. My Swedish isn't grand, so I listened and at the end, I think in closing said the family is going to Solliden.

It is said in the end that the Royal family is leaving Solliden. It is a bit confusing, but the place where the National Day celebrations take place annually in Stockholm is called Solliden as well. Solliden is located at Skansen.

Crown Princess Victoria opened the Open Palace to the public and did a walking tour, along with some baking for the guests' coffee bread where the proceeds went to the Crown Princess Victoria's Fund.
