European royalty join Danish royals for Crown Prince Frederik's glittering 50th birthday gala

Just a week after Britain's gorgeous royal wedding between Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, the Danish royals gifted the world with another lavish event to fawn over: Crown Prince Frederik's 50th birthday gala. After earlier public celebrations, Queen Margrethe hosted over 350 guests for a beautiful banquet in honour of her son at Christiansborg Palace in Copenhagen on Saturday, May 26. From the classic decor to the guests' showy style, the evening oozed with glamour as royals from all over Europe put on their crowns and gathered to celebrate Denmark's heir apparent to the throne.
