Svensk Damtidning asked Margareta Thorgren, why Victoria didn't have her Öland costume this time. Margareta Thogren said:
- With the pandemic, the concert has taken on a different format. Both the place and the shape are new, and in that situation there has been an opportunity for change and development - and a chance to think new - also when it comes to clothing choices. This new format was simply more suited to a dress.
The Crown Princess has stuck to her Öland costume from Räpplinge parish for all these years, but now she has broken the long royal tradition. But Margareta Thorgren is careful to emphasize that it still has a place, both in Victoria's wardrobe and in her heart:
- Yes, the Crown Princess loves her Öland costume. The female members of the royal family are generally very fond of their various province costumes. But traditions may also need to be developed.

Crown Princess Victoria and her family celebrate our future regent's birthday together. And in the TV broadcast, they showed what a welded unit they are together.
Petra Marklund stepped up to the microphone and sang the song "Du äger ditt skimmer". Victoria, Daniel and Estelle were noticeably moved by the lyrics - and when the song went into its crescendo we got to see a sample of their strong family bond.
Daniel and Estelle grabbed hands, and Victoria put her hand in to join.

- Princess Madeleine and her family send, above all, a private greeting to the Crown Princess, says Margareta Thorgren.

Prince Oscar did not attend at the concert.
Margareta Thorgren says that they never go out in advance whether the children will participate or not - and that this is no exception this year.
- It should be comfortable for both parents and children to participate. Sitting still at a concert is quite demanding and therefore the Crown Princess couple is careful to make it feel good for the children on the day they participate. Prince Oscar is very young and therefore he did not attend the concert and he hasn't done it previously either, says Margareta Thorgren.

It was nice to see that Victoria's birthday concert was still able to go ahead despite everything that's happened this year. Estelle and Oscar look as if they're going to be very tall; and I love Oscar's serious little expressions - just like grandpa!

I love the new format of the concert, and I was happy that Victoria got her concert as well.

I loveeee Estelle! She is so tall now, and I adore her dress. It is similar to Victoria's dress.

I for one isn't sorry that Victoria isn't wearing her Öland costume. Hopefully she's burnt the wretched thing and we'll never get to see it again.

Great how they try to spin it; that the royals love to wear the traditional costumes when especially Madeleine and Sofia have been seen to change the traditional shoes for more elegant ones... and also 'it's time for new traditions'... So much for loving the traditional outfits.

Countessmeout · Jul 14, 2020

I get wearing the traditional costume on National day but I never got her wearing it for her birthday. So I am more then happy she is not today.

Even National day they should either all (men included) or none have to wear.

I am glad they found a way to safely have the concert still and celebrate :flowers:

Oscar is certainly a serious little boy like his grandfather. Not surprised they opted for him not to go to the concert. It is a lot for some kids to sit through at that age. Its better they recognized he was not up for such an event, then trying to make him and him acting up. He was there for the earlier photos.

Hopefully next year we will get the usual but still great to celebrate with her.

MARG · Jul 15, 2020

In these days of Swedish equality I believe that it's about time the men of the SRF joined the women in traditional dress. It always looked odd to me on National holiday and birthdays that the men wore suits, comfortable as you please.

As to Madeleine and Sofia wearing elegant court shoes with tradition dress, it just looked vain and a little silly.

LadyFinn · Jul 15, 2020

It was a different celebration.
All the thousands who wanted to pay tribute to Victoria did not get the opportunity to come this year due to the pandemic.
Instead, we saw an empty Öland ruin filled with music.
But it was not the jubilee that shone the most during the SVT-broadcast Victoria concert. The sweet princess Estelle, 8, occasionally stole the show.
It would turn out that Princess Estelle was the big treasure during the evening. She showed respect, appreciation and charm.
Estelle always looked interested and despite her enormous energy, it seems that she knows her place as royal and she thrives so well in the role.
We congratulate Victoria and at the same time look forward to seeing her little princess grow and take even more space.

Crown Princess Victoria's birthday is usually celebrated with a folk festival on Öland - but this summer it was different and the preparations for "Victoriadagen" have been wrestled with uncertainty.
- It has been a strained situation. We started this happily unaware of what was to come and then we had quite big plans to implement major changes in the project. We launched a new venue at Borgholm Castle that could take a larger audience, but also where we could do things for several days, says the organizer Stephan Rimér.
Just over two months ago, it was not even known whether Crown Princess Victoria herself could travel to Öland, given the current corona pandemic.
- During the spring, it has been a very special situation where we have constantly had to try to plan for scenarios that we had no idea about. Less than two months ago, we did not even know if you could travel to Öland and if the royal family could come.
- It is with a very short take-off distance and there have been plans on whether we can carry out the celebration in Stockholm. We have in our heads and the planning stage conducted this evening's concert in four, five different ways already.
Earlier, Crown Princess Victoria was celebrated at Borgholm Sports Arena, but this year the concert has been moved to the castle ruins.
- When it became clear that we could not have this audience party, it became natural to start looking at smaller areas adjacent to the castle that could also help us with the boundaries we needed to be able to do this with as few people as possible.
Arrangörens ovisshet kring ”Victoriadagen” in i det sista

Crown Princess Victoria did not go directly to the audience room in the 400-year-old castle ruin Borgsholm. First, she and her family stopped to be photographed.
Victoria, Prince Daniel, Princess Estelle and Prince Oscar lined up nicely and professionally - but the birthday child cost himself a funny comment while the cameras snapped.
- It is important to keep your distance, you will do that, right?, Victoria said.
- We are hiding behind the cameras, the photographers replied.

Johan T Lindwall, editor-in-chief of Svensk Damtigning, writes about Victoriadagen at his chronicle. Svensk Damtidning is one of the partners of Victoriadagen organization.
We put 2020 behind us. Right? We do not want to be part of such a celebration of Crown Princess Victoria again. But what an effort by all. Impressive.
Sure, it was a celebration. Extremely ambitious to succeed - despite the situation that now prevails in Sweden and the rest of the world. But I think we should be completely honest. How fun was that? And how fun do you think Crown Princess Victoria really thought it was? Sit in Borgholm castle ruins basically all by yourself and be celebrated by the country's artist elite.
A birthday should be a joy shared with others. Thousands more in the case of Crown Princess Victoria, in normal cases. Now today it did not happen. Everything about Crown Princess Victoria's birthday was basically canceled. What is usually the highlight for her - the gathering of all the people inside Solliden Palace was completely canceled and the Crown Princess went straight from her beloved Villa Skönvik to Borgholm castle ruins for the annual concert.
Yes, the most exciting thing was that the Crown Princess did not wear the Öland costume - but for the first time chose to wear a nice dress.
Estelle, then? Yes, but she always saves and charms everything and everyone. Think, one day far into the future she will be Sweden's queen. We will with mother Victoria and daughter Estelle have two power women on the throne in Sweden for many years in a row. So cool!
What was worst? Personally? That for the first time since 1993 I was not present at the celebration. For the first time in 27 years. Sick, but true. Let us now hope that this never happens again and that in 2021 we have a normal state in Sweden and that we who can and want to can meet on Öland on 14 July.
I think we are adding this birthday to the history and hope it goes quickly to the next one on July 14th. Then the Crown Princess turns 44 and then I am in place and many of you with me.

The televised Victoria concert on SVT on Tuesday night raised a total of SEK 1,910,613 for Radiohjälpen's special fund where Crown Princess Victoria is the patron (The Crown Princess Victoria's Fund). The money supports children with disabilities and the right to active leisure.
The television broadcast of the Victoria Concert engaged a large part of the public for all children's right to active leisure. A total of SEK 1,910,613 was donated, of which the largest share, 58 percent, by telephone and the remainder via the payment service swish. The amount collected during the concert is almost twice as large as last year (increase by 94 percent).
"A big thank you to everyone who is committed to children with disabilities in this way," says Kristina Henschen, general secretary of Radiohjälpen.
“You enable more children to have a more meaningful everyday life. Through innovative thinking and alternative solutions, we find new ways for the right to an active leisure time, despite the corona.”
Victoriadagarna is a tribute to Crown Princess Victoria on her birthday. The event is broadcast annually from Borgholm on Öland. So far this year, SEK 7,134,700 has been donated to Crown Princess Victoria's Fund.

There were some people outside Borgholm Castle when the royals arrived to the concert, among them Municipal Director Ann Willsund from Mörbylånga Municipality.

The concert was much better than I expected. The audience hall at Borgholm Castle was a fantastic place for this kind of concert with a very small audience. The songs and music sounded good. The decorations were stylish, and there wasn't too much of them.
https://scontent-hel2-1.xx.fbcdn.ne...=1854c3dff3ad2e0c298f498d6f25edad&oe=5F33F637
Yvette Hermundstad is a very professional host to this kind of program. I didn't know all the artists (only The Mamas, Petra Marklund and Anne Sofie von Otter) before the concert, but I liked all of them. Linnea Henriksson surprised me, Oscar Stembridge was great, what a performer and only 12 years old. And the way he congratulated Victoria, Anne Sofie von Otter singing Sting's August Winds, that was so beautiful. And I became a Petra Marklund fan. What a great singer! Petra told Victoria before her last song, that she had heard that the crown princess likes one song she has written, it is so honourable. And now Petra sings it to Victoria, as her gift. She thanked Victoria that she can sing it to her, and be at the concert this evening, it is such an honour. Both Estelle and Victoria sang along at Petra's song. Victoria Award winner Armand Duplantis has set the world record at pole vault, 618. Yvette Hermundstad interviewed him and said that these windows of the castle towards Kalmarsund are six meters high, so here we can see how high you have jumped, even over it.
All these congratulations from people all over Sweden were nice to see.

The Crown Princess' celebration was not over after the concert. Then another surprise awaited.
Crown Princess Victoria greatly enjoyed her birthday concert. Maybe she was extra happy with Petra Marklund, who tore off one of the birthday child's favorite songs, "Fred".
Both Victoria and Princess Estelle were seen singing along to the chorus.
But the singing party was not over when the concert was over. Outside the ruin, a gathered troupe of Victoria lovers was waiting, who surprised the Crown Princess with a version of "Ja må du leva".
Victoria was noticeably moved.
- How sweet you are, thank you very much, hope you have a continued nice evening. Take care of yourselves, she said to the singers.

Armand “Mondo” Duplantis, the pole vaulter who thrilled the entire athletics world, received a diploma and a greeting from Victoria in connection with the Victoria Concert at Borgholm castle ruins.
But what was really said in that greeting from regent to laureate? Did Victoria speak Swedish - or English, which is what the US-educated Armand is more comfortable with?
We will not know. Victoria did not have a microphone when she handed out the Award, so TV viewers sniffed at her speech.
Organizer Stephan Rimér explains why.
- That has really always been the case. That's something she wants to address to him. The king doesn't have a microphone either when he hands out the Nobel Prize, says Stephan Rimér.

Haha, couldn't agree more. Nobody wears these provincial costumes, and hasn't for a century. I think this whole thing stems from Silvia wanting to embrace Swedish culture when she arrived and thus tried to reinvent this tradition.

Well, it hasn't caught on, has it?

And, for heaven's sake, let us never, ever see the men in those costumes.

Here's a video, where Petra Marklund says
"I have been told that the Crown Princess likes a song I have made"
Victoria nods.
"It feels so incredibly honoring. That's why it will be my gift to you today. Thank you for letting me sing it to you today and for letting me be here. It's a huge honor!"
And we see how the crown princess family sings with Petra.

Crown Princess Victoria celebrated her birthday in a castle ruin. But a VIP dinner was also held nearby.
Near the castle ruins, the municipality had arranged a kind of VIP dinner for the county's powerful men and women.
Matilda Wärenfalk, chair of the municipal board, Ann Willsund, municipal director, and Johan Göransson, director of tourism, were among those present.
- We sat at a small restaurant called Systrarna på höjden, says Johan.
- We did not talk to the Crown Princess, but we congratulated and she greeted so well. They looked like they had thought it was nice.
For Johan and his colleagues, yesterday was a highlight of the year, just like for the Crown Princess herself.
- This is the most important event Öland had, so it was very fun that it happened. It was a nice atmosphere, even though we had the recommendations to relate to.
What are your impressions of the event as a whole?
- I think it was very successful. It was magical TV pictures we were treated to.
- The impression that will live on with me is the hope for a bright future. That Victoriadagen will continue and be as it usually is again.

Crown Princess Victoria came out and made a difference - just when the anxiety was greatest and it was needed most.
In the days before Victoriadagen, the concern was great, and justified: Would the islanders and all visitors do as usual, and gather in large groups to celebrate Crown Princess Victoria? The court, the organizers but also the Crown Princess herself - all had a small lump in their stomach. The royal family does not want to contribute under any circumstances to the spread of corona infection.
But then Victoria went out with her personal appeal, a film clip that she had recorded in Solliden's famous pergola.
And the Crown Princess' words of seriousness took a turn for the worse. The islanders listened - and stayed at home. The organizer, led by Stephan Rimér, could breathe a sigh of relief:
- It went as we had planned. We are very happy! he told Svensk Damtidning immediately after the concert in Borgholm castle.
There were no major crowds?
- No, there were some visitors who had gathered outside the ruin and who surprised the Crown Princess with Ja må hon leva. She was very happy. But there were not so many people that we needed to ask them to leave. Not at all!

Svensk Damtidning tells that Stephan Rimér, the organizer of Victoria Concert, has organized a "VIP-dinner" at a restaurant near Borgholm Castle, and at the dinner they watched the concert from a screen.

Crown Princess Victoria celebrated her birthday with a concert at Borgholm Castle. Only nine people were allowed inside the hall - but the other celebrations found an alternative solution.
Near the castle ruins had held a kind of VIP dinner at the restaurant Systrarna på höjden. There sat the popular actor Mi Ridell.
- It was a small dinner next to the castle. Organizer Stephan Rimér had invited me, I and my partner Peter Andersson have a house on Öland and we are passionate about the island. So we got to see the concert on a screen, Mi tells.
Mi has very strong feelings for Öland, which she describes as a "pearl". She can not imagine a more dignified scene for the Crown Princess's party.
- The castle ruin is such a beautiful place for a concert. Nicer than a football field. And our fantastic crown princess is worth celebrating. I think she was happy with the circumstances. The TV broadcast was great, says Mi.
- It was so wonderful with the sunshine. I thought Stephan conjured up a fantastic event, despite the circumstances. Hats off to everyone involved. But it is of course more fun when the public gets to participate. Hopefully there will be a more public event next year.
Mi was not allowed to speak directly with the Crown Princess, but she congratulated Victoria from the other side a plastic band that was set up to protect the royals from the risk of infection.
- We who were there took a glass of bubbly in her honor. She is an incredible ambassador, says Mi.

Dagens Kalmar tells that Kay Wiestål, the founder of Victoriadagen (Victoria Day), Victoria's birthday celebration, has passed away at the age of 80.
Covid-19 has taken another life. This weekend, Kay Wiestål passed away after a period of hospital stay, several people close to Dagens Kalmar newspaper tell.
Kay Wiestål har gått bort – blev 80 år gammal

Victoriadagen's founder Kay Wiestål has died in the complications of covid-19. After a short hospital stay, he died on Saturday night.
- It went fast in the end. He received oxygen during the last 14 days, but in the end he still could not breathe, says his wife Camilla.
In February Kay Wiestål received a medal from the king for his efforts as responsible for the Victoria Day on Öland. Camilla Wiestål says that receiving the medal from the king was a very nice ending to Kay's life. It was a great experience to both of them.
Camilla tells also that when Kay turned 80, he received flowers from Victoria and Daniel, that made him very happy.
Victoriadagens grundare är död – Kay Wiestål blev 80 år

Margareta Thorgren says that the royal family has received the information and it is of course very sad. Kay Wiestål was the founder of Victoriadagen and has been involved in the celebration every year since.

The Crown Princess thinks it is so sad, said Thorgren.

Margareta Thorgren was interviewed at SVT News, she said: Kay Wiestål was a true entrepreneur and founder of Victoriadagen and of course the royal family is very sad. Because of this commitment he has had to celebrate the Crown Princess on July 14 and develope it as an incredibly successful way, Kay Wiestål as recently as in February received a medal from the king.
For over 40 years, Kay Wiestål was the man behind Victoriadagen, an event that alone attracted tens of thousands of tourists to Öland. But he was also of great importance to tourism in general in the region. He founded Kalmar's City Association in the early 1990s to get the city to collaborate on tourism, and he worked throughout his career to connect Öland and Kalmar to one destination.
Kalmar's tourism manager Stefan Johnson says: I don't think we really understand how much he did for this area. His strong network, both nationally and internationally, has really put our place on the map.

Thank you for everything Kay who took care of us photographers on Öland. And lots of love and thoughts to your family.
Victoria Day founder Kay Wiestål has... - Swedish Press Agency _ Facebook

Kay Wiestål's wife Camilla tells that she has received more than 25 flower bouquets. The royal family, led by Queen Silvia and Crown Princess Victoria, has sent a greeting. And three weeks ago, when Kay turned 80, a large and beautiful bouquet of flowers came from Victoria and Daniel.
- He was so happy about it, says Camilla.
Kay Wiestål had many memories, but he mentioned as very special the first time that 7-year-old Victoria handed out the Victoria scholarship all by herself to Gunde Svan 1984. And the world stars who have come to little Borgholm. Kay said he will never forget when Lionel Richie came with his private plane.

The Crown Princess's birthday
14 Jul at 14: 00-18: 00
We of course hope that this year we will be able to celebrate the Crown Princess's birthday here at Solliden as usual. We do not yet know exactly what the celebration will look like. It all depends on the infection situation and what restrictions apply at the time. We will return later with more information about what the day will look like.

Victoria Concert 2021
This year's Victoria Concert will take place at Borgholm Castle ruin on 14 July. Due to the uncertainty surrounding audience restrictions, there will unfortunately be no ticket sales to the public. The concert is instead planned to be a smaller event where only specially invited and partners to the Victoria Days will be offered seats.
The Victoria concert will be broadcast as usual on SVT1 on July 14 at 21:00.
More information about the Victoria Concert and other activities during the Victoria Days will come in the spring.
Victoriakonserten 2021 - Victoriadagarna på Öland 9-15 juli

Hanna Storm and Kristina Blad, based in Kalmar and have a background in, among other things, marketing, communication and events, strengthen Victoriadagarna (The Victoria Days). Hanna and Kristina will primarily work with business development and sales.
- It will be very exciting to work with Hanna and Kristina. The Victoria Days are in an important development phase where we plan many exciting news in the coming years. The commitment from individuals and companies in the Kalmar and Öland regions is, and will continue to be, crucial for the Victoria Days. With their creativity and energy, Hanna and Kristina will be an important part of the work going forward and also contribute with a much-needed increased presence in the region, says Stephan Rimér, responsible for Victoria Days.
- To be part of the journey to further develop the Victoria Days feels honoring and very fun! With a focus on a healthy lifestyle and Crown Princess Victoria's Fund, it is an inspiring and important work for us, Hanna Storm and Kristina Blad say.

Stephan Rimér, the organizer of Victoriadagarna events, told to Svensk Damtidning:
- We expect to be able to carry out both the Victoria Concert and the Victoria Golf - provided that the planned easing of the restrictions is implemented. We will remain at Borgholm Castle ruins again this year, but not at the same venue as last year. This year's concert will be held in the courtyard instead.
Rimér told that the audience seats will still be limited, so they can't sell tickets to the public, there will be only invited guests. But SVT broadcasts the entire concert.
Rimér couldn't say if the whole royal family will attend, they hope everyone can come but it is too early to say how it will be. And he couldn't reveal the artists yet.
The Victoria Award will be delivered to a swedish top athlete, and Rimér told that Victoriadagen's founder Kay Wiestål, who passed away in November in the suites of covid-19, will be honored during the concert.

Svensk Damtidning has contacted Margareta Thorgren
What about Victoriadagen, or the Victoria Concert as it is called nowadays? Is there hope that we will see Princess Sofia on site when Victoria is to be celebrated in Borgholm castle ruins?
Margareta Thorgren said that it depends entirely on the recommendations. Hopefully the whole royal family is at Solliden on Öland as they usually are in mid-July.

Why is Svensk Damtidning asking specifically about Princess Sofia?

Silverpot · Jun 3, 2021

Tatiana Maria said:
Why is Svensk Damtidning asking specifically about Princess Sofia?

They need something to write about. They've given up on Mads, she's not coming back, and they're running out of stories. It's tough for the gossip rags with a slimmed down court.

Not that CP and Sofia will feed them any scandals, but at least they can comment on her dresses and catch a glimpse of the boys, especially the newest addition.

Tatiana Maria said:
Why is Svensk Damtidning asking specifically about Princess Sofia?

Because it's a cheap tabloid rag and they're trying to stir the pot (again) and create a scandal to generate clicks.

Speedskater Nils van der Poel is awarded the Victoria Prize 2021
Nils van der Poel is awarded the Victoria Prize 2021 for taking the skating world by storm this year through double World Championships gold, as well as a world record for the prestigious distance of 10,000 meters.
- It is an incredible honor to be awarded the Victoria Prize. But above all, it is very gratifying for my skating heart that my dear sport is now once again part of the Swedish people's soul, says Nils van der Poel.
The prize is awarded by HRH Crown Princess Victoria during the Victoria Concert on 14 July, broadcast on SVT1 and SVT Play at 21:00.
Nils van der Poel tilldelas Victoriapriset 2021 _ Victoriadagarna
Translation

- I am thinking of cycling to Öland to receive the prize, says Nils van der Poel.
The first Prize was awarded in 1979 to Ingemar Stenmark. Last year it went to pole vaulter Armand Duplantis and the year before that to biathlete Hanna Öberg.
- It's a flattering list to see your name on. These are great sportsmen and -women. But in a way, it now feels like I might belong on that list and it feels very fun. For me, the royal family is something central in the Swedish people's soul. That's how I perceive it and that's why I think this award is extra fun.
He has never met anyone from the royal family. But he has guarded their Palace in Stockholm, as commando soldier van der Poel, who was at the Royal Guards during his military service.
Victoria Golf is arranged in connection with Victoria Day. The participants consist of companies that compete in teams and raise funds for Crown Princess Victoria's Fund through various challenges around the course. Last year's winner Armand Duplantis played with Daniel.
Van der Poel hesitates if he is asked to play, he played some golf in his youth but he hasn't done so in the last eight years. So he should probably answer no.
But there is another question he would no doubt answer yes.
Victoria and Daniel are initiators of Generation Pep, which wants to create a popular movement for more physical activity. And if there is something that is close to training person Nils van der Poel's heart, it is training. So if the Crown Princess couple would ask, there is no doubt.
- I would like to be an ambassador, he says.

The newly appointed Victoria Prize winner, Nils van der Poel, will cycle from Vittangi in the north to Smygehuk in the south - a distance of 2050 km. The goal is to complete the race in under 82 hours. Nils' extreme bicycle race will be his contribution to Victorialoppet - with the goal of raising SEK 205,000 for Crown Princess Victoria's Fund.
- I don't really know what we are getting into, but it is fun to feel Crown Princess Victoria's support and at the same time have the opportunity to contribute to the Crown Princess Victoria's Fund's important work, says Nils van Der Poel.
Nils and Lars' journey through Sweden starts on June 30 and will be able to be followed here on victoriadagarna.se or via Instagram. Of course, all newsrooms around Sweden are welcome to join the race. However, no interviews will be possible before Nils and Lars arrive at Smygehuk.

Press release:
The Crown Princess celebrates her birthday on July 14 on Öland, where the entire Royal Family gathers at Solliden Palace.
But due to the prevailing restrictions as well as the risk of creating crowds, the Crown Princess doesn't meet the public to receive congratulations at the roundabout in front of Solliden Palace.
The public celebration begins at the Victoria Concert in the Borgholm Castle ruins, where the Crown Princess Couple and parts of the Royal Family participate.

The popular host Yvette Hermundstad will once again lead the Victoria Concert. It will be her third year in a row. In recent years, the conditions for the Victoria Concert have looked completely different and this year there will be a concert in front of a few hundred spectators at Borgholm Castle.
- It feels fun and glorious to have the confidence for the third time to host the celebration of the Crown Princess. It is such a special day and it feels especially fun to have the opportunity this year to invite a small audience for the celebration on site. As always, I am expectant and very much looking forward to paying tribute to the 43rd Victoria Prize winner in history, says Yvette Hermundstad.

- It feels very inspiring to be able to present such a strong line-up of artists this year when we have the honor to welcome back both the royal family and a few hundred people in the audience. I am convinced that it will be a fantastic concert, both live and on TV, says Stephan Rimér, organizer for Victoriadagarna.

After 24 hours of cycling, 670 km driven and SEK 42,510 collected, Victoria Prize winner Nils van der Poel was forced to break his bike race that would take him from Vittangi to Smygehuk in 82 hours.
Nils was tired and according to his own statement, could no longer maintain the speed required to complete the race in less than 82 hours.
- Cycling 2050 km in 82 hours is a very, very tough challenge. Despite solid preparations, it didn't work out this time. Rest a little now Nils, see you on Öland in July, says Stephan Rimér, organizer for Victoriadagarna.
Nils' friend Lars Skantz continues to cycle towards Smygehuk and the fundraising for Crown Princess Victoria's Fund continues.

The court also gives information about how much influence the royal family and the birthday child had around the bookings of artists to the Victoria Concert.
- It is the organizer together with SVT who makes decisions about the artists, the court writes in an email to Newsner.
Despite the fact that the Crown Princess herself has not decided who will be allowed to perform, there is every possibility that this will be a real great evening.

Performers of the Victoria Concert have been interviewed in the magazine:
This spring, Moonica Mac and Benjamin Ingrosso released the song "The Big Red House" which the artists have written together. On July 14, they will both be on the Victoria Concert stage, Moonica as a debutant. Moonica Mac says: It feels fantastic to perform in front of the royal family together with Benjamin and the Augusti family. Benjamin and I wrote the song together and it will be fun to meet again and perform together.
For Benjamin Ingrosso, this is the second time he has been on the stage of the Victoria Concert after participating in the celebration of Victoria's birthday in 2019. Benjamin says: It is always incredibly glorious and nice to be able to sing in front of the royal family. I remember that Princess Estelle was a big fan of "All Night Long". In 2019, there were more playful songs on stage, this year, there will be a little more calm songs.
Sabina Ddumba participates for the first time at the Victoria Concert, she says: It will be great fun, partly to be able to sing again in front of an audience and partly to be part of such a special day where the Crown Princess is celebrated.
Sofia Jannok says: It feels so honoring to sing at the concert. I have seen the concert for many years. It is a very nice production that it will be really fun to be a part of.

Victoria Prize winner Nils van der Poel arrived with a parachute.
It is less than a week since a plane crash in Örebro - where eight parachutists and a pilot arrived.
The Victoria Prize winner Nils van der Poel chose to arrive in Borgholm with a parachute to honor the victims.
On Wednesday, he met the press. He chose to arrive by parachute despite the fact that the jumper family is saddened by the tragic plane crash in Örebro recently, in which nine people died.
- It is heavy in many ways. Parachute Sweden is very tight. People who have meant a lot to me have disappeared, he says.

I liked the concert very much. There were some new swedish artists for me, great to hear them. Smith & Thell will perform at Solliden Sessions tomorrow and on Friday. I liked both duets and Benjamin Ingrosso is a very charismatic young man.
The way the concert was filmed was great and the scenery on the arrival of the Crown Princess family was magical:
