Copenhagen, Denmark, 5th June, 2015. The amendment of the Danish Constitution in 1915 gave Danish women the right to vote and stand for election. This important anniversary is celebrated in Copenhagen on the Constitution Day by the Government, the Parliament and the ongoing Distortion Festival in Copenhagen. A commemorative parade takes place very similar to the original one in 1915, many of the participants are in historic garments. This is at the finish point of the parade in the Christiansborg Palace Yard before the official speeches.
