LONDRA, November 12, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --

Oggi VISITLONDON.COM, l'agenzia turistica ufficiale della capitale, in collaborazione con la campagna GREAT Britain, ha lanciato un concorso internazionale per scoprire chi sarà l'Ospite d'Onore Ufficiale di Londra, al quale verrà concessa l'opportunità unica di godersi Londra come non mai.

Il vincitore sarà invitato a Londra a febbraio 2015, e avrà l'onore di:

- sollevare il Tower Bridge , il piu' famoso ponte del mondo

- godersi un musical in compagnia della cantante internazionale Jessie J.

- sorseggiare un te' insieme al maggiordomo di Downton Abbey, l'attore Jim Carter

- visitare il Museo delle Scienze sotto la guida del noto scienziato Stephen hawking

- effettuare un tour della Royal Opera House insieme al famoso cantante lirico Placido Domingo alla prima ballerina e giudice di  Stricly Come Dancing Darcey Bussell

- godersi la prima di un film nel centro di Londra

- incontrare la star del tennis Tim Henman a vistare insieme a lui il campo che ospita il Torneo di Wimbledon

Boris Johnson, sindaco di Londra, ha affermato: «Londra è pronta ad accogliere il nostro Ospite d'Onore in grande stile. Questa è un'opportunità incredibile per godersi appieno la più grande città al mondo, nel modo migliore possibile e sono sicuro che il vincitore tornerà a casa con qualcosa di speciale, di unico, qualcosa che non dimenticherà mai. Quindi, avanti, inviate un video, partecipate e provate anche voi a vincere e ad assicurarvi questa esperienza unica al mondo».

La celebre cantante Jessie J ha aggiunto: «Ho iniziato la mia carriera da professionista sullo storico palco dell'Aldwych Theatre. Proprio per questo sono entusiasta di poter dare all'Ospite d'Onore la possibilità di visitare questo luogo così emblematico. Londra è ricca di arte, musica e cultura straordinarie. Non esiste niente di meglio di BEAUTIFUL, nuova produzione targata West End, per provare la magia immensa del palcoscenico. Questo fantastico nuovo spettacolo parla di Carole King, una vera icona musicale, e non vedo l'ora di sentire le sue canzoni così intense prendere vita sul palco londinese.»

Plácido Domingo, cantante lirico e direttore d'orchestra noto in tutto il mondo, ha detto: «La mia prima performance alla Royal Opera House di Londra risale al 1971, nei panni di Cavaradossi, personaggio della Tosca, e sono lieto di poter accompagnare l'Ospite d'Onore in uno dei miei teatri dell'opera preferiti, a me tanto caro. Londra è una città in cui adoro tornare e una delle principali capitali culturali mondiali, con i suoi teatri, i suoi artisti e, ovviamente, un pubblico magnifico».

Jim Carter, attore noto, tra gli altri, per il personaggio del maggiordomo Carson in Downtown Abbey, serie TV trasmessa in tutto il mondo, ha affermato: «Londra è una città di grande ispirazione grazie al suo patrimonio di prim'ordine creato nel corso dei millenni. Non vedo l'ora di mostrare parte della nostra cultura al mondo intero, accompagnando il vincitore di questa splendida iniziativa in una visita al Lord's, per permettergli di cogliere alcuni tratti della nostra storia sportiva e visitare il tempio del cricket, quintessenza del passato, del presente e del futuro di Londra.»

Londra ha fatto registrare un incremento nel numero di turisti molto forte a seguito delle Olimpiadi del 2012. Nel 2013 le cifre indicano che la città ha accolto il numero record di 16,9 milioni di turisti internazionali. Il Mastercard Global Cities Index, affidabile indice che recentemente ha posto Londra in cima alle città più visitate al mondo, stima che la capitale britannica accoglierà 18,7 milioni di turisti internazionali nel 2014.
