FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Experience Iconic Movies with a Multi-Sensory Fusion of Food and Film
WHAT:
Fork n’ Film is now open at Las Vegas’s renowned AREA15, the pulse-pounding hub of experiential art and entertainment. While cooking up gourmet screen-to-table meals, Fork n’ Film recreates dishes from timeless films and serves them as they appear on-screen to create a fully immersive cinematic experience.
The project originates back to the rooftop of founders Nick Houston and Francesca Duncan’s apartment, where they first tried out the idea of allowing people to try the food they see on screen in their favorite movies. Garnering an audience of people between the ages of 25-40, Houston and Duncan quickly grew from the vision they dreamt up, expanding to Fork n’ Film screenings to a delicious experience of eating-a-long to childhood favorites. Nostalgia is on the menu, as classic feel goods such as “Mean Girls,” “Holes,” and “Alice in Wonderland,” bring viewers back to their childhood.
“Our parents always told us, don’t play with your food, but we want you to play with your food while you’re immersed in iconic films,” said Houston.
Located on the second floor of AREA15 next to Wink World, Fork n’ Film offers a truly one-of-a-kind setting where movies come alive through sight, sound and flavor. State-of-the-art visuals and surround sound create a fully immersive atmosphere, drawing guests deeper into the worlds of iconic films.
Whimsical menus at Fork n’ Film bring playful creativity to fine dining. The menus of each experience are kept a surprise, as the Fork n’ Film team of creative chefs constantly creates new recipes. Each film is paired with a brand-new multi-course menu and Instagrammable cocktails and mocktails curated specifically for the experience. All meals can be modified for vegans, vegetarians and guests with dietary restrictions.
Since launching in 2024, over 45,000 tickets have been sold worldwide. Fork n’ Film preserves all that guests love about movie-going while elevating cinema to a multi-sensory experience. This creative new take on a beloved tradition will fit in perfectly at AREA15, the world’s first purpose-built immersive entertainment district.
