For the first time ever, Lay's will be heading to Coachella to provide a festival of flavor and a first-of-its-kind experience that lets customers enjoy the brand's chips at peak freshness. The multi-sensorial, four-course seated dining experience will soon be open for reservations and Lay's FRESH 4D invites people to taste chips made with locally sourced potatoes that are served within 24 hours of being made.
This exclusive tasting experience at Coachella will unfold in Lay's Potadomes installation, complete with a music-inspired tasting menu amplified by scent, sound and sight. The limited experience promises to be an unforgettable one at the festival and memories can be preserved with photos of the Speakeasy Spuds, which pay tribute to genres like hip-hop, electronic and pop music.
