Dinner with mermaids? Party goes viral and becomes a joke on social media A video of a party with tables, dishes and guests inside a swimming pool went viral on social media. In addition to the unusual aspect of the dinner in the water, "mermaids" swim among those present. The scene, which seems to have come out of a fantasy film, is real and takes place in Italy. The curious image became fuel for jokes. The White Dinner Water Show is held at Villa ReNoir, in Cerro Maggiore, in the Lombardy region of Italy. The place is about a 30-minute drive from the center of Milan. The idea is to turn dinner into a spectacle, complete with performances by mermaids, acrobats, musicians, singers, a DJ and even fireworks. To participate, guests must follow one rule: the costume must be completely white. The pool is prepared to receive the public. The water level is lowered until it is knee-high, and tables are installed inside. This is where customers dine. The menu has three courses, with meat and fish options. There are also alternatives for people with celiac disease or food intolerances. 'Mermaids' between the tables During dinner, artists portrayed as mermaids swim through the pool, passing between the tables and the guests. At the same time, acrobats perform suspended dozens of meters high. Singers and musicians also perform live. The night ends with a DJ set and fireworks show. The unusual combination caught attention on social media. In Brazil, videos and images of the dinner generated comments and jokes from internet users, mainly due to the unconventional situation of trying to have dinner while a mermaid swims between the tables.
