For the first time ever, Shakespeare’s Juliet’s house will host a modern-day Romeo and Juliet on Valentine’s Day. This medieval home includes the famous balcony linked to Juliet’s declaration of love.
Airbnb is offering one lucky winner and their guest the chance to stay overnight in Juliet’s bedroom. But that’s not all. This unforgettable evening will also feature a feast prepared by a chef holding two Michelin stars and the opportunity to read love letters addressed to Juliet.
To qualify for a stay in Juliet’s house, participants need to write a letter to Juliet in English, sharing their own heartfelt love story and explaining why they and their partner would make ideal guests. The submission deadline is 11:59 PM EST on February 2, 2020. Specific rules apply.
The world’s most famous love story is set in Verona, Italy. Though Shakespeare did not mention its precise location, Casa Giulietta in the town’s center is widely believed to be Juliet’s residence.
Experience the culinary genius of two-Michelin-star chef Giancarlo Perbellini, who will reveal the secrets behind the special Valentine’s Day dinner.
Every year, thousands of love letters are sent to Casa di Giulietta from all around the world. This longstanding tradition has earned Verona the nickname “the city of love” and keeps the NGO Juliet’s Club busy. The team’s volunteers, known as Juliet’s secretaries, reply to each letter individually.
To enter the contest, simply visit the website and write your letter to Juliet. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so don’t miss out! The contest will close at 11:59 PM EST on February 2, 2020.
