In the morning, Princess Ingrid Alexandra and Prince Sverre Magnus joined Crown Prince Haakon and Crown Princess Mette-Marit, with their dogs, to greet the Children’s Parade in Asker outside Skaugum, their residence.
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.
Crown Princess Mette-Marit wore Princess Ragnhild’s Pearl Brooch for the first time.
