Phish has just announced a brand new dining experience at this year’s Magnaball. For those of you tired of eating grilled cheeses and Jerry Rolls, you can purchase a ticket for some fine dining Festival Ate cuisine.
Farm-to-table, five-course prix-fixe culinary journeys, paired with local beers or wines… these are a handful of key phrases from the announcement. Check it out below:
Festival Ate: A Special Dining Experience at Magnaball
Amidst the panoply of food offerings at Magnaball is Festival Ate, a full-service restaurant (china! glass! linens!) serving breakfast, lunch and each night of the festival (including Thursday), a unique Phish lyrics-inspired farm-to-table dinner. Tickets are available at http://j.mp/festate
These dinners will be 5-course prix-fixe culinary journeys, with different menus each night, reflective of the Finger Lakes seasonal bounty and paired with local beers or wines. Vegan, vegetarian and omnivore options will be available and the dinners are on the early side so you won’t miss a minute of the shows. To view menus and for more information about the team in the kitchen and to buy advance tickets for these dinners visit http://j.mp/festate. Seating for Festival Ate dinners is very limited. We strongly suggest buying tickets in advance to ensure your seat for these very special experiences.
In addition to the prix fixe dinners, Festival Ate will also open from 10AM to 1AM each day, with an attached bar and and courtyard where you can grab a light bite or drink or a coffee.
The full menu and tickets can be found here.
