King Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia of Sweden attended the opening of the Amadeus Weekend events held as part of the 2026 Salzburg Festival. The “Amadeus Weekend” was established in 2003 by festival patron Donald Kahn and Eva O’Neill. Since then, O’Neill has organised the exclusive cultural weekend every August as part of the Salzburg Festival.
At the opening of the Amadeus Weekend, the King and Queen first attended a private dinner at Hellbrunn Palace. They then attended the festival’s first major performance, where the opera “Ariadne auf Naxos” was staged at the Haus für Mozart.
Among those attending the opening ceremony were Prince Alexander of Schaumburg-Lippe and his wife, Princess Mahkameh, as well as Eva O’Neill’s daughter, Tatjana D’Abo, and her husband, Henry D’Abo. Funds raised through the Amadeus Weekend events held during the Salzburg Festival are intended to support creative development at the Salzburg Festival.



Grande élégance chez le couple royal - J’adore la robe de Silvia aux couleurs très estivales !

Wonderful prints on the lady on the legt and on Q.Silvia and the turquoise gown Is eye- catching as well, pity it doesn't sit well in the waist and hip districts.
