Peruvian Cultural Night

An evening of cultural discovery and connection. Celebrate the vibrant spirit of Peru at Renaissance Boston Seaport District during an evening inspired by Sail 250™ and the arrival of the Peruvian Navy’s renowned training vessel, B.A.P. Unión. This special gathering brings together culture, community, and cuisine in a setting designed for discovery. Situated in the Seaport District, just moments from the Harborwalk and Tall Ships programming, the hotel serves as a lively meeting place where travelers and locals intersect. In collaboration with the visiting crew and Boston’s Peruvian community, the experience showcases authentic cultural elements through music, flavors, and shared moments of connection. Join us at Capiz for a social, high-energy evening featuring thoughtfully crafted cocktail specials and curated bites that highlight Peruvian influence. It’s an inviting opportunity to immerse yourself in the atmosphere of one of the city’s most anticipated summer celebrations. As the official host hotel of the B.A.P. Unión, Renaissance Boston Seaport District welcomes you to experience culture through a fresh lens, rooted in tradition, yet distinctly modern.
