In its third year, TomorrowWorld , billed as America's largest 21-plus music festival, has announced its first chef partnership in conjunction with Red Beard Restaurants , the group created and owned by Atlanta chef Kevin Gillespie .
Headlined under Tomorrow’s Table, the partnership will serve up an assortment of exclusive dining opportunities during the three-day outdoor electronic dance music/DJ experience, which is dubbed "The Key To Happiness" this year.
The festival will take place Sept. 25-27 on 8,000 acres outside of Atlanta in Chattahoochee Hills, GA and could attract as many as 200,000 people over the weekend.
Gillespie's acclaimed Glenwood Park restaurant, Gunshow , and Revival , his new upscale Southern restaurant, which opened in Decatur on July 23, will both be in the mix, along with his pop-up/catering, whole-hog barbecue concept, Terminus City .
Throughout the weekend, Gillespie and Tomorrow’s Table will focus on three key elements:
* The music festival’s first sit-down restaurant experience, which will overlook the Main Stage and feature "a new, fresh seasonal menu each day themed to one of Gillespie’s restaurant concepts."
* A similarly-themed takeaway picnic basket service.
*An intimate, seated 10-course dinner cooked and served by Gillespie and friends on Saturday night of the festival.
