Princess Ingrid Alexandra is celebrated with a gala dinner at the Palace – NRK Norway – Overview of news from different parts of the country

Tonight is the set for a grand celebration of Princess Ingrid Alexandra’s official day.

The royal couple invites to a gala dinner and party at the Palace to celebrate the grandson.

Princess Ingrid Alexandra turned 18 and came of age on January 21, but due to the pandemic, the official celebration was postponed until now.

On the occasion of the 18th anniversary, the Royal House today published new photos of the heir to the throne, where it was also revealed which tiara she will wear tonight.

Because when Princess Ingrid Alexandra will wear a tiara for the first time during tonight’s gala dinner, it is with a tiara that her tippold mother received as a gift over 120 years ago.

Royal guests

Among those who will celebrate the 18-year-old tonight are – besides the hosts, King Harald and Queen Sonja – the princess’s parents, brothers, grandmother Marit Tjessem, aunt Princess Märtha Louise and her fiancé Durek Verrett, and cousins ​​Maud Angelica, Leah Isadora and Emma Tallulah Behn.

In addition, a number of European royals have come to Oslo to celebrate the Norwegian heir to the throne.

Crown Princess Victoria, who is Princess Ingrid Alexandra’s sponsor, and Prince Daniel are accompanied by their two children, Princess Estelle (10) and Prince Oscar (6).

From Denmark, Crown Prince Frederik, who is also the Norwegian princess’ sponsor, and Crown Princess Mary are among the guests, and from Spain comes King Felipe – he is also the sponsor.

From the Netherlands, both the royal couple, King Willem-Alexander and Queen Maxima, and their eldest daughter Princess Catharina-Amalia – number one in the succession to the Dutch throne – have come to Oslo. Catharina-Amalia herself turned 18 just over a month before Princess Ingrid Alexandra.

Started the celebration yesterday

Yesterday, Princess Ingrid Alexandra was celebrated with a gala dinner at Deichman’s main library in Bjørvika in Oslo, which was a gift from the government.
