This year Royal Run will be held in Herning, Aabenraa, Nyborg, Nykøbing Falster and Copenhagen/Frederiksberg. And once again Royal Run will take place in the pentecost weekend, on the 29th of May 2023.

HRH The Crown Prince of Denmark and HRH The Crown Princess of Denmark will take turn in participating in the five cities, running together with the Danes.

Royal Run is an opportunity for Danes, foreigners living in Denmark or visiting Denmark to take part in this unique event with the royal family where running, walking and something in between is in focus. Hopefully this event will encourage people to be physically active on this day and in general.

The event is organized so that everyone can participate. Athletes or ambitious runners can compete and chase personal records. The rest of us can join the festive event at our own pace – and it is possible for whole families, elderly and those with disabilities to participate and enjoy the festive celebration in the streets of the five host cities.

The Crown Prince is protector of the organization behind the event, “Move for Life”. With this event he wants to engage directly with the Danes in an event open for everyone.
