Thought you’d experienced every unique restaurant in Vancouver? Think again! Dinner in the Sky Vancouver is taking top honours as the most epic place to dine in the city this July. We gave you a sneak preview about the event in January, and now the time has finally come to take your next dining experience to a whole new level.

In fact, it’s a level that’s over 150 feet off the ground… on a platform held up by a giant 200 foot crane for a stunning view of Vancouver and the surrounding areas in a way you’ve never had a chance to see it before. And yes, they’ll lower the platform for you if you really have to go to the bathroom…

So, uh… What is Dinner in the Sky anyway?

If you didn’t get it by now, Dinner in the Sky is – quite literally – dining in the sky! Guests are lifted into the sky on a special platform outfitted with a table for a gourmet lunch or dinner. You’ll be feasting on dishes with fresh ingredients that are inspired by the most recent trends in modern cuisine.

The idea first originated in Belgium and has blossomed with over 5,000 similar events in 40 countries worldwide. This will be the first time Vancouver has hosted Dinner in the Sky and the breathtaking scenery will surely lend itself to this unique dining experience. It also leads one to think, has there ever been a better selfie opportunity?

Where does Dinner in the Sky Vancouver take place?

For 2017, Dinner in the Sky will be taking place in North Vancouver, a quick drive or Seabus trip from Downtown Vancouver (directions are available here). The location offers up exceptional 360-degree views of the city along with the mountains, oceans, and more.

How much does it cost?

While some may consider this a priceless dining experience, it does actually come with a price. But, this price includes unparalleled views, food, and company. So, worth the extra money!

The cheapest ticket, a $296 lunch experience, includes a 2 course meal, premium starter, 1 glass of champagne, and unlimited juice/soft drinks. (That’s $296 per ticket, by the way). If you’re feeling a bit more generous, you can shell out $919 for the VIP treatment, which includes a 5 course meal, raw bar, caviar, wine, champagne, and prime seating.

Tickets to the once-in-a-lifetime experience are selling fast, so if you’re at all keen to try Dinner in the Sky Vancouver, it’s a good idea to make a reservation right now!

But, what if I have to go to the bathroom?

Understandably, one of the most frequently asked questions about the Dinner in the Sky Vancouver experience is the bathroom situation… Rest assured, this event is run by professionals. Washroom facilities will be provided on the ground and you will be able to go before the service and half way through. If for any reason you need to use the bathroom during service, just ask an attendant and we will lower the platform for you, it only takes a minute to get down!

So, if you’re ready to experience dining at a whole new level at a restaurant that goes above and beyond anything you’ve ever been to… You’ve got to check out Dinner in the Sky Vancouver.
