history
In 2007, David Ghysels, the owner of a marketing and communication company, organized an airborne dinner for the Jeunes Restaurateurs d'Europe association together with the bungee jumping organizer Stefan Kerkhofs . Shortly afterwards, they received requests from all over the world who wanted to imitate their concept. The two then decided to turn it into a franchise . Ghysels said, "It's a little surreal, but we noticed that people are bored of going to the same old restaurants. They wanted to try something different. So we decided to push the limits. The sky is the limit ! "
In 2008, Las Vegas- based Michael Hinden and his wife Janeen saw Dinner in the Sky at a trade show . On December 31, 2008, they tested the concept in Las Vegas as part of a New Year's Eve party for friends and business partners. Since March 2009 they have been holding Dinner in the Sky on the weekends on West Sahara Avenue .
As of August 2009, Dinner in the Sky was operating in more than a dozen countries.
The restaurant in Athens was featured in the Bachelorette program in August 2018 .
