Have the Royal Family announced any celebrations for Princess Lilian's 90th birthday this year yet?I remember HRH's birthday is on 30th August.
And also we have not seen her for a long time, i mean on engagements or presenting prizes or awards.

Oh I really hope that they have some sort of public celebration - even just a very small one such as an appearance in the courtyard the Royal Palace in Stockholm so members of the public can congratulate her. :)

I don't think there will be any larger celebrations, she might be too frail for such things at her high age, although she looks incredibly good! Hopefully there will be a dinner in her honour, that would be a minimum I would think... But we'll see...

I agree with you Gita, I also hope there will be a congratulatory call on the courtyard. I will send her this postcard, but in purple, and some flowers (haven't decided what kind yet).

I think that is lovely of you GrandDuchess. Love that postcard you're going to send her. :)

This week's issue of Svensk Damtidning tells that the Royal Family will honour Princess Lilian's 90th birthday tomorrow with a big party at Prince Eugen's Waldemarsudde on Royal Djurgården (not too far from her home, Villa Solbacken, which also is on Royal Djurgården). Queen Silvia is said to be the party planner, or the "party general" as they called her.

I hope the "party general" will do her very best for this great birthday child.

All my best wishes and congratulations to her Royal highness!!
