Norway – PROLIGHTS TABLEDs were used to illuminate the baptism celebration of Norway’s new purpose-built Polar-research ship, the “Kronprins Haakon” (Crown Prince Haakon). The Norwegian state-of-the-art ship is the first vessel to be built in over 100 years. The baptism of the Kronprins Haakon was awash with various high-profile Norwegian ministers, many celebrities and the ship’s new godmother, the Princess Ingrid Alexandra.
