Royal Palace Pass: Rosenborg, Amalienborg and Christiansborg
Starts with a booked slot at Rosenborg Castle, then 72 hours for Amalienborg and Christiansborg.
The Royal Palace Pass is one adult ticket for three royal palaces in Copenhagen. It does not start at Christiansborg. It starts at Rosenborg Castle, in the 10-minute entry slot you choose at checkout. From that first visit you have 72 hours to see the Amalienborg Museum and all four Christiansborg visitor sites, neither of which needs a time slot.
What to expect
Day one begins at Rosenborg Castle in your booked slot. The date and time you pick at checkout are for Rosenborg, and the pass is scanned there first. Inside you see the royal apartments, the Long Hall and the Treasury with the Danish Crown Regalia.
Your 72 hours start with that visit. Within them, walk in at the Amalienborg Museum in Christian VIII's Palace, part of the royal family's residence, without a time slot. The palace advises checking its weekly hours, as sites can close for official events.
Also within the 72 hours, use the pass at every Christiansborg visitor site: the Royal Reception Rooms, the Royal Kitchen, the Ruins and the Royal Stables, which open only from 13:30 to 16:00. Christiansborg can close at short notice for state or royal events, so plan it early in your window rather than on the last afternoon.

Who it's not for
If you only want Christiansborg, the combination ticket is the simpler choice and does not tie you to a Rosenborg slot. If you cannot fit Rosenborg into your plans at the start, this pass is not for you, because it has to begin there. It is an adult pass; children under 18 enter free.
