Royal Summer Ballet 2023 coming to Fredensborg Palace Garden

The Royal Summer Ballet is an annual tradition where the Royal Danish Theatre travels across the country with some of Denmark's best artists and offers free outdoor performing arts.

Since 2006, the Royal Summer Ballet has drawn thousands of audiences out into the summer weather to experience ballet under the open sky in some of the country's most beautiful locations, including the Fredensborg Palace Garden, where the ballet will take the stage by the lakeside of Esrum Lake on June 13th.

The Royal Danish Theatre states that "the best start to summer is to sit in the Danish summer sun with family and friends while dancers from the Royal Ballet perform live." And that's precisely what the audience can experience at the Royal Summer Ballet - a magical evening in royal surroundings with both seasoned ballet lovers and new ballet enthusiasts gathered for a free outdoor performance.

The audience can look forward to excerpts from some of the greatest and most beloved ballets. And while the dancers warm up on stage, you can enjoy the picnic and the beautiful surroundings of Esrum Lake.

The Royal Danish Theatre encourages the audience to walk from the other parking lots or use public transportation or bicycles, as 2,500 to 3,000 audience members are expected. There will be competition for parking spaces near the Palace Garden. Toilets and handicapped toilets will be set up, and Red Cross Samaritans will be present. However, there will be no sale of food or drinks, so the audience is encouraged to bring refreshments.
