Princess Benedikte Welcomes Students From Tasiilaq and Gentofte

On Wednesday, September 24, 2025, Princess Benedikte of Denmark welcomed schoolchildren from Tasiilaq, Greenland, and from Gentofte Municipality on the east coast of Zealand. Each September, it has been a long-standing tradition for students from Tasiilaq to spend a week in Gentofte as part of an exchange program. This year, Princess Benedikte invited them to a gathering at Christian VII's Palace at Amalienborg.

The initiative was originally launched when the Princess served as patron of the former Gentofte-Greenland Committee. During the event, the Greenlandic schoolchildren presented a gift to Princess Benedikte before performing a musical piece. Joining the 20 Greenlandic students from Tasiilaq and 21 pupils from Gentofte Municipality, the Mayor of Gentofte, Michael Fenger, also attended and delivered a speech.
