The 2025 CNE will be the first festival in Canada to host a "dinner in the sky" experience that seats you at a table 150 ft. above ground. Making its first-ever appearance at the CNE this summer, the festival is introducing Dinner in the Sky, which sends diners soaring 150 ft. in the air, surrounded by panoramic views of the festival while they tuck into a meal. Dinner in the Sky experiences have been around for years, popular in cities like Dubai, Punta Cana and Tokyo, and Toronto has even seen the concept before, but the CNE will become the first-ever festival in Canada to offer such an experience. Each intimate dinner — or should we say, "flight" — seats up to 22 people around a large, suspended table where the chef, in the centre, prepares your meal. Tickets for Dinner in the Sky are on sale through the CNE's website now.
