Grand Duke Henri, Grand Duchess Maria Teresa, Hereditary Grand Duke Guillaume, Hereditary Grand Duchess Stéphanie, Prince Félix, Prince Louis, Princess Alexandra and Nicolas Bagory, Prince Sébastien first attended the traditional ceremony at the Philarmonie.

In his speech, Grand Duke Henri announced that Hereditary Grand Duke Guillaume will become his Lieutenant-Représentant in October. This is a traditional step toward a future abdication of Grand Duke Henri. Grand Duke Henri will remain the Head of State but Hereditary Grand Duke Guillaume will assume most of his constitutional powers.
