When it comes to creating memorable romantic experiences, Princess Cruises continues to set the bar high. In 2025, they bring a unique and captivating event to New York City with Love by Britto, an exclusive pop-up dining experience. Originally launched aboard Princess Cruises' newest flagship, Sun Princess, this romantic shoreside event will debut at the stunning waterfront venue, Currents at Pier 59, making it the most sought-after Valentine's reservation in the city. Combining world-class dining, enchanting décor, and celebrated artwork, Love by Britto invites couples to experience the luxury and romance synonymous with Princess Cruises in a distinctive New York City setting.
At the heart of Princess Cruises’ Love by Britto is a seamless blend of exceptional cuisine, sophisticated ambiance, and vibrant art by the internationally acclaimed artist Romero Britto. Renowned for his colourful and optimistic style, Britto's iconic art sets the perfect backdrop for a truly memorable evening. Guests will experience the allure of oceanic travel through a unique floating video wall, showcasing spectacular ocean views from onboard Sun Princess and the upcoming Star Princess. This innovative approach captures the essence of cruising, offering guests an immersive taste of the sea without ever leaving shore.
The culinary journey at this event is meticulously curated by Rudi Sodamin, Head of Culinary Arts at Princess Cruises, who described it as "an event that goes beyond a traditional dinner." From the heart-inspired cocktails like the Strawberry Love Potion and Expresso My Love to the sumptuous five-course menu featuring dishes such as Cappuccino of Wild Mushroom with Shaved Winter Truffles, every detail promises to elevate this dining experience beyond expectations. Each course is presented with a creative flair and precision, ensuring that the meal becomes as much an artistic expression as it is a culinary delight.
Limited to two unforgettable nights, February 13 and 14, Love by Britto guarantees exclusivity and intimacy with only one seating per evening from 7:00 pm to 9:30 pm. Attendees will revel in extraordinary touches, including a festive Champagne Wall that magically delivers bubbly at the ring of a bell, enhancing the romance of the evening. This whimsical feature creates an engaging and joyful moment for guests, adding to the festive atmosphere and providing a delightful interactive experience that sets the tone for the evening.
Guests are invited to indulge in dishes crafted to perfection, such as the luxurious Duet of Prime Beef & Wagyu or the delicate Chilean Sea Bass with Caviar Mousseline. The experience concludes with exquisite desserts like Lionel Richie's "All Night Love" Vanilla Salted Caramel Ice Cream from Smize & Dream by Tyra Banks or a decadent Chocolate Lava Cake with raspberry cream, all beautifully presented with Britto-inspired dinnerware and heart-themed decor. Each table setting is thoughtfully designed, reflecting both the romantic essence of the occasion and the vibrant, joyful spirit that defines Romero Britto's art.
Love by Britto is not just an exceptional dining event but also supports a meaningful cause. With reservations priced at $214 per person—a playful nod to Valentine's Day—the event benefits Save the Children, reflecting Princess Cruises' commitment to charitable initiatives. This adds a layer of heartfelt generosity to the luxurious event, allowing guests to celebrate their love while contributing to a worthy cause.
This captivating dining experience is already anticipated to become one of the most exclusive reservations in New York City for Valentine's Day. Booking through Tock ensures guests secure their chance to participate in this remarkable culinary and artistic collaboration. Given the limited seating, early reservations are recommended to ensure that you and your loved one don’t miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
