A decision about King Frederik's patronages has been made:

"The King becomes the patron of North Atlantic House in Odense and Projekt Koltur on the Faroe Islands, both of which have the objective of promoting knowledge of the Realm’s culture and nature, as well as of The Danish Architecture Center, The Brain Prize and The Léonie Sonning Music Prize, which each in their own way focus on Danish design, science and culture in an international context. The King is expanding his involvement in the green agenda as patron of The Copenhagen Climate Ministerial.


In addition to this, The King assumes 14 patronages from Queen Margrethe, of which a number of the organisations have a historical connection with The Royal House of Denmark. This concerns, among others, The American-Scandinavian Foundation, The Danish Bible Society, The Sports Confederation of Denmark (DIF), The Greenlandic House, The Royal Danish Geographical Society, The Royal Danish Academy of Sciences and Letters, The NORDEN Association and Foreningen til lærlinges uddannelse, an organisation focused on education of apprentices.


In addition, The King retains eight of his previous patronages, including The Copenhagen Royal Chapel Choir, State of Green and The Danish Red Cross".

He seems to have a great interest in this patronage. It's been years that he has attended.
