" Court – in Danish, kur – is derived from the French “cour”, which means court. The Danish use of the word especially refers to the ceremony in which a number of people obtain an audience with and greet the monarch. The Royal House of Denmark holds annual courts – also called as levees – for a wide circle of people in connection with the commencement of a new year. Ordinarily, a court or levee is carried out while standing, unlike a banquet, at which one is seated at a table.
Representatives of official Denmark and of the Realm will take part in the court.
