A number of the events that had been scheduled to mark the 50th anniversary of Her Majesty The Queen’s accession to the throne in mid-January 2022 will instead be held on 10 and 11 September 2022. These include, among other things, a celebration at the Copenhagen City Hall, a command performance at the Royal Danish Theatre’s Old Stage, a celebratory church service in Copenhagen Cathedral and a gala banquet at Christiansborg Palace. In addition, there will be an opportunity to pay tribute to The Queen in connection with a grand changing of the guard at Amalienborg Palace Square. The final program will be announced later in the year.

The adapted program for the anniversary day on 14 January 2022 thus looks like this:

09:30: HM The Queen begins the day with a council of state at Christiansborg Palace together with HRH The Crown Prince.

10:00: HM The Queen, The Crown Prince Couple, TRH Prince Joachim and Princess Marie and HRH Princess Benedikte attend the Danish Parliament’s official celebration of the anniversary of Her Majesty’s accession to the throne.

12:00: HM The Queen, The Crown Prince Couple, TRH Prince Joachim and Princess Marie, HRH Princess Benedikte and HM Queen Anne-Marie participate in a wreath-laying ceremony at Frederik the 9^th and Queen Ingrid’s grave at Roskilde Cathedral.

On kongehuset.dk, a theme page for the 50th anniversary of The Queen’s accession to the throne is set up, and information about the jubilee is continuously updated. There, it is also possible to download the official jubilee logo, which is made available for the celebration throughout the year. Likewise, on the Royal House of Denmark’s website on 14 January, a congratulations list will be set up, and there it will be possible to send personal felicitations to The Queen on the occasion of the anniversary. Due to the coronavirus situation, it will not be possible to show up in person at Det Gule Palæ at Amalienborg, which is otherwise the tradition for major events in the Royal House of Denmark.
