Tracking #International Tiara Day Event 2026

I’ve been posting every International Tiara Day on my YouTube channel since 2022 but have never done something on tumblr so I’d love to do a fun challenge/event for it this year! There’s no pressure of course—you can only do one or a couple days or none of them, just have fun and everyone is welcome to participate!

DAY ONE — 20 May 2026: All-time favourite tiara (Any type of edit for the tiara you look forward to seeing the most when you hear the words banquet, gala, nobel, etc. You can include the history of the tiara as well but that’s optional.) DAY TWO — 21 May 2026: Favourite tiara debut (Favourite first tiara appearance of all time for blood and/or married-in royals. You can include their clothing and other accessories as well.) DAY THREE — 22 May 2026: Your perfect wedding day tiara (What tiara would you like to wear on your wedding day? You can choose any tiara from any royal or aristo family or from any media. You can include what clothing and other accessories you’d like to wear too.) DAY FOUR — 23 May 2026: Favourite tiara(s) in film/television (From Disney to Period Drama, share your favourite tiara(s)! You can include the character’s clothing and other accessories as well if you’d like.) DAY FIVE — 24 May 2026 (International Tiara Day): Free day (Whatever you want to do to celebrate tiaras! A poem, collage, gif set, video, so long as it features a tiara/tiaras.)

Pop star Ronan Keating could be overheard saying to the Princess of Wales, "Please say hi to William."

His wife Storm Keating, added "he's such a gent'" before Ronan said, "Yeah, we love him."

Catherine then made the pair laugh when she replied:

Royal Tiara Highlights:Swedish Laurel Wreath Tiara

This tiara (that also can be worn as a necklace) was created by Boucheron and given to Princess Margareta of Sweden as a wedding gift in 1905 by Queen Sofia of Sweden. Margareta left the piece for her third son, Prince Bertil, and his wife Princess Lilian was the first one to publicly wear it as a tiara and not a necklace (Lilian actually wore the piece prior to her marriage to Bertil - the pair wasn’t allowed to get married at the time given her position as a divorcee, and the possibility of Bertil needing to fill in as regent to his nephew, Prince Carl Gustaf. She was, however, accepted into the family and her wearing tiaras to public functions were the proof of that.)
