Eight new events have been added to the stellar Vegas Uncork’d by Bon Appétit schedule lineup, including a behind-the-scenes kitchen experience at The Venetian Resort, as well as new dining and entertainment offerings at Caesars Entertainment and MGM Resorts’ ARIA.

New events include:

  • Behind the Scenes with the Master Chefs of France (The Venetian Resort), May 9: Join the Master Chefs of France for a rare glimpse in their natural setting as they prepare gourmet masterpieces right in front of your eyes.

There, guests will be fully immersed in the art of the chefs’ process while enjoying a cornucopia of creative, thoughtfully prepared dishes, lavish cheese plates and desserts accompanied by some of France’s best wines. ‘Maître Cuisinier de France’ or ‘The Master Chefs of France’ is one of the most envied titles that chefs can aspire to receive, as they are often given the highest classification in restaurant guides and are regularly mentioned in the world’s leading food and travel magazines. This opportunity is one you won't want to miss.
