Every event aboard Britannia involves days of meticulous preparation. The sense of occasion builds as you are piped aboard via the Royal Brow to be welcomed into the State Drawing Room for champagne and irresistible canapés. As the call goes out for dinner, your guests enter the magnificent State Dining Room, set with candelabras and flowers. The orchestrated service is as discreet as the gentle refrain of harp or violin, allowing your guests to fully enjoy the finest cuisine, lovingly prepared and beautifully presented. After your sumptuous meal, you may choose to hear from a former admiral, or perhaps to fill the night with light music as a military band, Beat the Retreat, play on and fireworks illuminate the sky.
