RENAISSANCE HOTELS EMBARKS ON GLOBAL DAY OF DISCOVERY, SHOWCASING EVENINGS AT RENAISSANCE PROGRAM
Renaissance hotels celebrates global day of discovery, showcasing unique experiences and revamped evenings program.
Renaissance Hotels, a prominent brand within Marriott Bonvoy's portfolio, will celebrate its annual Global Day of Discovery starting on May 18, uniting over 170 properties worldwide in delivering extraordinary and unexpected experiences rooted in the spirit of local neighborhoods.
The ninth anniversary of the Global Day of Discovery will spotlight the revamped Evenings at Renaissance program, which aims to provide guests with authentic local encounters.
As travel resumes in full swing, the hotel and travel industry recognizes the growing demand for unique experiences that go beyond traditional tourism. The Evenings program transforms Renaissance properties into cultural curators, offering surprise bar rituals and collaborations that extend beyond the hotel's premises.
Jennifer Connell, Global Brand Leader for Renaissance Hotels and Vice President of Distinctive Premium Brands at Marriott International, expressed enthusiasm for the event, stating, "This year's Global Day of Discovery and the reintroduction of our Evenings program highlight Renaissance Hotels' passion to uncover the unique DNA of the neighborhood, in an unexpected way. Today's travelers crave a genuine connection with the locale, and with our properties celebrated as cultural hubs of their community, we cannot wait to ignite the neighborhoods around the globe with moments that make you look and look again, and adventures you won't forget."
The Global Day of Discovery will feature four properties worldwide, each collaborating with a cultural curator to offer immersive experiences that go beyond the ordinary. These tastemakers have an innate passion for exploration and deep knowledge of their lesser-known interests.
At the Renaissance New York Chelsea Hotel, guests will be transported back in time as the historic Antiques Garage market is revived. Supermodel and fashion icon Lily Aldridge will curate a whimsical exploration of antique treasures and vintage finds from New York Vintage, a renowned local store. The event will also feature speakeasy-inspired bar rituals and a soulful performance by Caroline Vreeland.
