Celebrate Valentines Day with some high romance at the Juliet statue at Covent Garden. Disaronno will be helping London lovers to honour the most romantic time of the year with some Italian passion at the north side of the Covent Garden piazza in February 2009.

Juliet Statue at Covent Garden
Shakespeare's tale of star crossed lovers Romeo and Juliet is one of the most well known romances of all time, and Disaronno will be hoping to harness the story's famed ardour and reckless devotion to love with the Juliet statue at Covent Garden. The statue of the young and beautiful Juliet will stand in Covent Garden on and just before Valentines Day 2009 for people to see and touch.

Faithful replica
The Disaronno Juliet Statue at Covent Garden is based on the famous bronze statue of Juliet in Verona, Italy. Standing in a leafy courtyard supposedly once owned by the Capulet family, the bronze statue has become one of the most visited sites in Verona. Legend has it that stroking the statue will bring you good luck, but if you can't make it over to Italy this Valentines Day, try giving the Covent Garden replica a rub to see if it brings you love and good fortune for 2009.

Love wall
Directly behind the Juliet statue will be a love wall, where you can write a romantic note or wish for others to see. An inventive way to send a secret Valentine's message to the object of your desire or make a grand declaration of love to your partner, the best examples from the love wall at Covent Garden will also be published on the Disaronno website.

The love wall and Juliet statue at Covent Garden will be on display from Friday 13th February - Saturday 14th February 2009. For other ideas and events for Valentines Day, click on the link below.
