An Evening in Margaritaville

AN EVENING IN MARGARITAVILLE
A Pop-Up Dining Experience

Destin, Florida – The Mattie Kelly Arts Foundation is pleased to announce the introduction of Destin’s first “Pop-Up Dining” experience, “An Evening in Margaritaville” on Thursday, August 23 at 5:30 PM. This concept adds an impromptu and intriguing twist to traditional wine dinners using a themed approach and the element of surprise for the foodie who hungers for space at the table.

According to a recent article in USA Today, the “Pop-Up” dining experience is a growing trend in boutiques, galleries, clubs, coffee houses and bars in many major metropolitan communities in the United States and even crossing the pond to international markets. They originated as super clubs in the 1960s and 1970s with varying degrees of presentation and features. They can appear in an unlikely place, such as an old warehouse, building rooftop, airport hangars or restaurants. Event details, from the location, menu and other details are not disclosed until closer to the event date, but are sure to be a winning culinary experience. It is the fascination of surprise and mystery leading up to the party and space always dictates the seating limitations to maintain an intimate camaraderie among the attendees.

Patrons attending “An Evening in Margaritaville” will enjoy live music, a unique painting demonstration by an emerging local artist during a sumptuous moveable feast, prepared by a mystery chef, including a specialty Margaritaville drink and select wines. Artwork and other themed items will be auctioned to benefit the Mattie Kelly Arts Foundation’s cultural arts and children educational outreach programs for the fine and performing arts.

Contact the Mattie Kelly Arts Foundation at 850-650-2226 to purchase your space at the table. Tickets are $100 per person and seating is limited to the first 100 guests. Come dressed in resort coastal attire for this casual, but upscale, waterfront dining adventure. This charitable fundraiser is sponsored by Legendary, Inc., Sysco, Southern Wine & Spirits and Life’s A Beach Publication.
