If you’re interested in a unique dining experience, look no farther than DinnerInTheSky.com, which is more or less exactly what it sounds like: patrons dine on a platform suspended 50 meters (that’s 164 feet, for those of you unfamiliar with the metric system) in the air. For comparison, that’s almost equal to the height of the Leaning Tower of Pisa or Niagara Falls (.91 Pisas and .98 Niagaras, too be exact; also, incidentally, the exact length of an Olympic-sized swimming pool).
According to the website,
Dinner in the Sky is available for a session of 8 hours. It can be divided or personalised according to the client’s wishes.
Dinner in the Sky accomodates 22 people
around the table at every session with three staff in the middle (chef,
waiter, entertainer…). Just to give you an example: this means that, at a
rate of 2 sessions per hour, more than 350 people could have access to
this exceptional platform, or only 22 if you want an exclusive VIP
event.Dinner in the Sky is an event that can be
held anywhere (golf course, public place, race track, castle, vineyard,
historical site…) as long as there is a surface of approximately 500 m²
that can be secured. Of course, authorisation by the owner is required.
Of course, it’s pricey – $289.00 per person in the United States. Other services offered include “Meeting in the Sky,” “Showbiz in the Sky,” and – my favorite – “Wedding in the Sky.”
