The visit marks the beginning of a packed itinerary celebrating the close ties between Denmark and Latvia.
With warm handshakes, formal smiles, and the grandeur of Riga Castle as a backdrop, the Danish royals set the tone for a diplomatic trip blending tradition and international goodwill.
Taking to Instagram on Monday, the Danish palace revealed that King Frederik and Queen Mary are set for a grand three country tour, Latvia, Estonia, and Lithuania with the first stop being Latvia on October 28th–29th, 2025.
Day two will bring a mix of culture and camaraderie, with visits to Ādaži Gymnasium and Ādaži Military Base, home to Denmark’s deployed troops.
