Gary, there are usually 3 garden parties in Luxembourg around this time of year and just like other countries those invited play key roles in society, the police forces, the military but also many local politicians and many volunteers who all are helping their nation to thrive!!
BTW, today there will be a garden party at the Chateau for all inhabitants of Colmar-Berg, so .. more a matter of locals meeting locals
Tomorrow and the day afterwards Luxembourg will celebrate it's National Day with both Te Deum, Military Parade and the GD family turning out in full force to join various festivities all around their country, so there will be plenty more pics from Luxembourg in the days to come !!
The Grand Ducal website has the following to say about the garden parties btw, and am sure the text is clear even though it is in French
Should you have any questions though, please do ask!
