MIAMI, FL and MONTREAL, QUEBEC – July 22, 2015
– As the annual secret affair known as “Le Dîner en Blanc” pops
up in select cities around the globe this year, modern luxury cruise
brand
Celebrity Cruises will be bringing a taste of its award-winning
onboard experience to Dîner en Blanc attendees.
“Just
as Celebrity Cruises offers award-winning globally inspired cuisine,
sexy and stylish spaces, and intuitive service on our stunning ships, Le
Dîner en Blanc consistently offers
unforgettable evenings of elegance, beauty and magic around the globe,
and there is a natural synergy between our brands,” said Lisa
Lutoff-Perlo, President and CEO, Celebrity Cruises. “We are thrilled to
have a strong presence at Dîner en Blanc events in
key cities in 2015, and to bring special elements of Celebrity’s modern
luxury to everyone who attends these incredibly visual, chic events.”
Bystanders
will witness groups of guests all dressed in white gathering at
specific rallying points all across the city. Guided by Dîner en Blanc
volunteers, these groups will then
converge on one of the city’s most beautiful settings, which is
revealed only when guests arrive. Every guest brings their own gourmet
feast, table, chairs and table setting. Over the course of the evening,
they will eat and celebrate amid music, entertainment
and dancing.
Celebrity
will reveal a number of exciting event experiences to Le Dîner en Blanc
attendees at events in Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Los Angeles, New York
City, San Francisco, and Washington
DC in 2015. The sponsorship also offers Le Dîner en Blanc members in
those cities the opportunity to enter a sweepstakes to win a seven-night
Celebrity cruise for two to the Caribbean. Celebrity is also providing
the prize for a contest for Dîner en Blanc
attendees in those cities and additional U.S. cities, which includes
submission of a photo of the attendee’s 2015 Dîner en Blanc table
setting and design, which will be judged by Dîner en Blanc on style,
creativity, and elegance. The winner will receive the
ultimate modern luxury escape: a grand prize of a 10-11-night Celebrity
cruise for two in Europe plus roundtrip, coach-class airfare from a
major US gateway, and $250 onboard credit.
“We
are incredibly excited that Celebrity Cruises is bringing its modern
luxury dynamic to our guests in these very special cities,” said Sandy
Safi, Co-Founder, Dîner en Blanc International.
“Not only is Celebrity giving our guests opportunities to win cruises
on their beautiful ships, but they are also bringing some unique touches
to our events. We look forward to a continued relationship with
Celebrity as a result of this year’s activations.”
