Stella Artois elevates hosting with the first of its kind, multi-sensorial dining experience in Montreal

In collaboration with Bompas and Parr and 45 DEGREES, Cirque du Soleil's events and special projects company, Stella Artois introduces 'Le Savoir'

MONTREAL, June 29, 2016 /CNW Telbec/ - Stella Artois recently announced the global launch of 'Le Savoir', an unforgettable multi-sensorial culinary journey, set to debut in Montreal in early August. Created in collaboration with culinary wizards, Bompas and Parr and produced by 45 DEGREES, the Global events company from Cirque du Soleil, 'Le Savoir' uses time as a metaphor and Stella Artois as the muse to transport guests to a forgotten garden in the heart of the city. Montreal's USINE C (1345 Avenue Lalonde) will play host to 'Le Savoir' from August 4 to 11 before the event travels to New York City and Buenos Aries.

"After the success of Stella Artois Sensorium in Toronto last summer, we are delighted to continue sharing unique experiences with Canadians that are inspired by the intricate flavour notes of Stella Artois," said Maria Guest, Brand Director, Stella Artois. "Through this one of a kind program we hope to elevate the hosting experience to another level with new tastes and perspectives as well as inspire consumers across the globe to leave their mark through their own hosting occasions." 

Guests in Montreal, New York City and Buenos Aires will be transported through the seasons for a multi-sensorial, multi-course dining experience featuring food and beer pairings inspired by the spectrum of flavours in a Stella Artois. Brought to life by culinary wizards Bompas & Parr in unison with the world's leading immersive entertainment and sensory experts 45 DEGREES, Cirque du Soleil's events and special projects company, 'Le Savoir' will engage, enhance and awaken all the senses: sight, sound, taste, touch and aroma. The immersive dining experience blends Stella Artois with food, technology, entertainment and performance art to challenge perceptions and awaken the senses. 

"We're excited to partner with Stella Artois to create a dinner party so sensual and luxurious that it will stimulate the senses as never before.' said Harry Parr, Director of Bompas & Parr.
