Swedish royals enjoy family night out at Solliden Sessions concert

Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden, 44, and her daughter Estelle, 11, appeared in great spirits on Wednesday as they stepped out with family.

The Swedish royal family, including Queen Silvia, 78, and her husband King Carl Gustaf, 76, attended a Jill Johnson concert at Solliden Sessions, Borgholm in Sweden.

Also attending the Swedish country and pop singers’ show was Prince Daniel, 48,  Princess Madeleine, 40, and Princess Sofia, 37, alongside her husband Prince Carl Philip, 43.

The royals looked relaxed as they made their way to their seats at the open air venue. 

Princess Victoria donned a pale blue summery gown which featured elegant buttons down the front and mesh detailing. 

She completed her laid back look with white trainers and carried a denim jacket in her arms. 

Estelle looked casual in blue jeans and a grey floral T-shirt which she paired with a khaki jacket. 

The princess accessorised with a beige straw bag which was slung over her shoulder. 

Princess Sofia looked effortlessly stylish in flared jeans which she paired with a green linen shirt.

While Prince Carl Philip donned grey chinos with a crisp white shirt, adding trainers for a laid back look. 

Silvia’s nephew Patrick Sommerlath and his daughters Chloé and Anaïs also made an appearance. 

Patrick looked dapper in a bright colourful shirt and cream trousers alongside his daughter who looked elegant in summer dresses. 

Queen Silvia and King Carl Gustaf beamed as they made their way into the concert to join their family.

The Queen looked pretty in pink as she donned a stylish cropped blazer which she paired with white trousers. 

While her husband donned a smart cream jacket with a blue shirt and red trousers.  

Princess Madeleine looked bright and breezy in a red floral summer dress and a denim jacket. 

While her husband Daniel wore a blue shirt which he paired with navy trousers. 

It comes after Princess Victoria was joined by her children Princess Estelle and Prince Oscar, in traditional dress as they lead celebrations for National Day in Stockholm last month. 

Dressed in a yellow and blue folk costume an adorable Estelle walked hand-in-hand with her father Prince Daniel in Stockholm as the royal family marked the start of the celebrations.

She was accompanied by her mother Crown Princess Victoria who looked equally festive in the traditional ensemble, her father Prince Daniel, and her brother Prince Oscar, six, who both wore suave blue suits.  

Mother and daughter were matching in the blues and yellows of the ‘Sverigedräkten’ folk dress costume, consisting of a white shirt or blouse, blue skirt or dress and a yellow overskirt, in the colours of the Swedish flag.

But the 44-year-old wore a white headscarf with her outfit, which symbolises that she is married, unlike her young daughter.  

Every year the King and Queen take part in a ceremony at Skansen, Stockholm’s open-air museum, where the yellow and blue Swedish flag is run up the mast, and children in traditional peasant costume present the royal couple with bouquets of summer flowers.

National Day also now recognises new Swedish citizens, welcoming them with special ceremonies held around the country.

Other festivities which usually take place on the National Day of Sweden, also known as Svenska Flaggans Day (Swedish Flag Day) include a ceremony at Skansen which is Stockholm’s open-air museum.

The Swedish flag is raised and children present the King and Queen of Sweden with bouquets of summer flowers.
