From Clarence House:
"The British Government have asked The Prince of Wales and The Duchess of Cornwall to undertake official visits to Norway, Sweden and Denmark from 20th to 27th March 2012. These visits, to other Monarchies linked by common Royal descent, mark the start of Their Royal Highnesses' official overseas celebrations of The Queen's Diamond Jubilee. Their Royal Highnesses will, in each case, be guests of the Sovereign Head of State.
The themes of the tour will include strong historic and diplomatic links between the United Kingdom and all three countries. There will be a particular focus on commercial opportunities for British business to support [the] economy, military co-operation, environmental sustainability, social cohesion and youth opportunities.
...
The Spring Tour will finish in Denmark, where Their Royal Highnesses will be guests of The Queen and Prince Consort. [The British Queen's] Diamond Jubilee celebrations have particular resonance since The Queen of Denmark is celebrating her fortieth anniversary on the Throne. The Queen of Denmark and the Prince Consort will host an official dinner for Their Royal Highnesses; and the Crown Prince Couple will accompany Their Royal Highnesses on a number of engagements. In Copenhagen, the Royal Couple will meet veterans from Afghanistan campaigns and attend a service at the Anglican Church, at which other Members of the British Royal Family, including Princess Alexandra and Edward VII, have previously worshipped. The Prince will visit a power station to see low-carbon and renewable power generation in action. At Kronborg Castle in Elsinore, The Prince and The Duchess will see a theatre workshop arranged in partnership with the Royal Shakespeare Company, followed by an excerpt from Shakespeare's "Hamlet". Moving on to Jutland, Their Royal Highnesses will visit a university to see ground-breaking "green" technology initiatives, and visit one of Denmark's leading sustainable and organic farms.
