In light of the sad announcement about Queen Elizabeth II’s death yesterday, 8 September 2022, it is Her Majesty The Queen’s wish that a number of adjustments be made to the weekend’s planned celebration of the 50^th Jubilee of The Queen’s Accession to the Throne. Among other things, this means that the ceremonial celebration with the Guard Hussar Regiment’s Mounted Squadron and horse-drawn carriage transport by the Royal Mews is cancelled. Subsequently, the adjustments are as follows:

Saturday, 10 September 2022

• The planned changing of the guard parade on Amalienborg Palace Square, during which The Queen and the Royal Family were to have appeared on the balcony, is cancelled.
  
  
• The visit to Copenhagen City Hall with accompanying entertainment is postponed until a later date.
  
  
• The command performance on the Old Stage of The Royal Danish Theatre will continue to be held in a modified form. In addition, the evening’s planned musical performance at Krinsen on Kongens Nytorv is cancelled.

Sunday, 11 September 2022

• The church service in the Church of Our Lady/Copenhagen Cathedral will go forward in a modified form.
  
  
• The following luncheon for Nordic heads of state and the royal family on the Royal Yacht Dannebrog will be carried out as planned.
  
  
• The gala banquet at Christiansborg Palace Sunday evening will be carried out in a modified form.

A new date for the postponed celebration at Copenhagen City Hall will be announced at a later date.
