The Norwegian Royal Family celebrated Constitution Day, the National Day of Norway, on May 17th by greeting the annual Children’s Parade in Asker from Skaugum (residence of the Crown Princely family) and another from the balcony of the Royal Palace of Oslo.
On the morning of May 17th, Crown Prince Haakon, Crown Princess Mette-Marit and Princess Ingrid Alexandra with their dogs, greeted the Children’s Parade in Asker outside Skaugum, their residence. All three wore National Dress. Prince Sverre Magnus is part of the graduating class this year, and was thus celebrating with his classmates and friends and not joining the Royal Family to greet the Children’s Parades.
Later, the Crown Princely Family joined King Harald V and Queen Sonja on the Balcony of the Royal Palace of Oslo, where they greeted the Children’s Parade in Oslo. The custom of greeting children from the Palace Balcony on Constitution Day dates back to 1906, when it was introduced by King Haakon and Queen Maud.
