Absolut New Orleans

A new twist on a classic, dinner and a movie, has emerged in New Orleans at the stylish W Hotel. The hotel host of the Cocktail Film Fest event is sure to bring together the perfect trifecta of elements: film, food and cocktails.

Well known cocktail industry extraordinaire Cheryl Charming, will host the dinner-party style events on March 21 – 22, introducing guests to the night’s theme, on which the dinner, film and drinks will all revolve. The event is a prequel to the upcoming Tales of the Cocktail event to occur in New Orleans July 16-20 at the Hotel Monteleone.

Three films will play total, Casablanca on Friday night at 8pm, an early bird 5pm showing of The Seven Year Itch on Saturday, as well as a Saturday night 8pm screening of Guys and Dolls.

Casablanca guests will of course enjoy a Moroccan themed ensemble of foods, while Seven Year Itch guests will receive the best of 1955 in happy hour form and even a surprise guest. Guys and Dolls viewers will be treated to gourmet versions of TV dinners, since of course, this is not your typical takeout and tube night.

Film and food buffs can enjoy all the films at a discount or just the ones they choose. There are also special discounts offered by the W Hotel for those who park and/or stay at the hotel throughout the event. Escape to another world with exotic cocktails, fanciful feasts, and classic films all from the comfort of your luxury hotel.
