Prince Joachim and Princess Mary of Denmark have confirmed their attendance for Friday, February 14, and Saturday, February 15.
Prince Joachim, the younger brother of King Frederick of Denmark, moved to Washington D.C. in the summer of 2023 to take up a new position at the Danish Embassy, although he frequently travels back home for high-profile events.
It is worth mentioning that Prince Joachim and Prince Harry previously met in Copenhagen in October 2017 during a visit in which Harry met with several Danish participants of the Invictus Games.
These upcoming Invictus Games will be an event full of excitement and camaraderie, highlighting the spirit of self-improvement that characterizes these competitions.
