# Multi-Sensory Dining Events Stella Artois' Unique Dining Experience Engages the Five Senses By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2015-08-11 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unique-dining-experience References: [marketingmag](http://www.marketingmag.ca/advertising/stella-takes-torontonians-on-a-journey-of-the-senses-153882?rss=yes) & [stellaartoissensorium](http://stellaartoissensorium.com/) This fall, [Toronto](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxe-culinary-experience) will be host to a [unique dining experience](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sensory-dining-experience) from [Stella Artois](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stella-hour-finder) called the 'Sensorium.' The three-week experience is one part dining and one part theater, based around the idea of involving all of the senses when eating and drinking. A gigantic dome will be set up for the event, which will serve as the immersive 360-degree theater for the tasting and viewings to go on. For instance, when eating a course of seafood, projection mapping will turn the interior of the dome into an underwater environment. Salty scents from the sea will be projected in order to really recreate the feeling of being by the ocean. Considering that tickets have been flying off the shelves and it's anticipated that more than 2,000 people will attend this unique dining event, the pop-up dome gives the brand flexibility to bring the Sensorium to other global cities. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.2/10 - Popularity: 36% | Activity: 81% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Multi-sensory Dining:** Incorporate all five senses for immersive dining experiences. - **Projection Mapping Experiences:** Using projection mapping technology combined with physical experiences to create immersive events. - **Pop-up Dining & Entertainment Events:** Short-term, unique events that engage all five senses and bring immersive experiences to different locations. ### Where This Applies - **Food & Beverage:** Incorporating immersive sensory experiences to enhance customer dining and engagement. - **Entertainment:** Creating unique events that engage all five senses for an immersive experience. - **Technology:** Utilizing projection mapping and immersive technology to recreate sensory environments. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Augmented Reality Dining Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/awaken-your-senses.md) - [Multi-Sensory Restaurants](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selva-toronto.md) - [Multi-Media Dining Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/a-3d-journey-through-time.md) - [Multisensorial Dining Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/feeladelphia-by-philadelphia.md) - [Retrospective Multisensory Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/experiential-townhouse.md) - [Multi-Sensory Fondue Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fondue-experience.md) - [Painterly Dining Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/7-paintings-the-art-of-dining.md) - [Multi-Sensory Cocktail Bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bellboy-bar-berlin.md) - [Sensory Immersion Activations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/enlightenment-by-eonarium.md)
