Dear Dark Diners
We hope this message finds you well.
There is confusion in the community regarding Dining in the Dark alongside the dining experience and we would like to take a moment to clarify.
The Mix Bar Woolloongabba offers the unique and authentic Dining in the Dark experience in Australia.
We have absolutely no affiliation with Fever Events offering blindfolded dinners in restaurants around Brisbane, promoting and advertising Dining in the Dark. Whilst we have tried to have this stopped to no avail, restaurants continue to partner with this American company and mislead patrons.
We take pride in our dark events, offering a complete blacked out setting engaging your senses throughout a culinary journey.
We understand the confusion and inconvenience this is causing and request that if you have any questions or concerns that you contact us directly - [email protected]
We appreciate your support and look forward to welcoming you to The Mix Bar for an unforgettable Dining in the Dark experience soon.
Regards
Dining in the Dark team
