Wynn and Chef's Table Forge a New Era of Culinary Luxury

LAS VEGAS, NV – February 17, 2026 – In a landmark move poised to reshape the landscape of high-end hospitality, Wynn Resorts and Chef's Table, the brand behind the Emmy Award-winning Netflix documentary series, today announced a multi-year global partnership. The collaboration will fuse the resort's luxury infrastructure with the acclaimed series' intimate storytelling, kicking off this fall with an extravagant culinary festival designed to offer a glimpse into the future of fine dining.

This strategic alliance aims to elevate Wynn's already formidable culinary reputation by creating a series of exclusive, immersive events featuring the world's most celebrated chefs. The partnership will debut in September at Wynn Las Vegas, transforming the resort's existing 'Revelry' tasting experience into 'Wynn Revelry by Chef's Table,' a weekend-long celebration of gastronomic innovation.

Redefining the Luxury Experience

For years, luxury resorts have courted celebrity chefs, but this partnership signifies a deeper integration of media, narrative, and hospitality. It moves beyond a simple endorsement to create a living, breathing extension of the Chef's Table brand, known for its deeply personal and visually stunning profiles of culinary masters. The goal is not just to serve world-class food, but to immerse guests in the stories and philosophies behind it.

"Revelry is all about pushing culinary boundaries in ways that are bold and immersive," said Brian Gullbrants, Chief Operating Officer for Wynn Resorts North America, in a statement. "Partnering with Chef's Table allows us to elevate that vision even further, as their commitment to innovation and craftsmanship aligns perfectly with ours." Gullbrants emphasized that the collaboration is about building experiences "guests won't find anywhere else."

The inaugural 'Wynn Revelry by Chef's Table' in September promises a packed itinerary that underscores this immersive philosophy. Events include an exclusive 'Icons dinner' headlined by globally recognized chefs, a friendly 'chef and celebrity cookoff,' and 'Club Gourmet,' which will see top chefs serving gourmet bites in the high-energy environment of Wynn's XS nightclub. This fusion of nightlife and haute cuisine demonstrates a commitment to breaking down the traditional, often staid, formats of food festivals.

Beyond the Screen: A Strategic Leap for Chef's Table

For Chef's Table, this partnership represents a significant strategic evolution. Since its premiere in 2015, the series has captivated millions on Netflix, becoming the platform's longest-running original series and a benchmark for food documentary filmmaking. Now, with the formation of its 'Chef's Table Projects' division, the brand is strategically expanding its footprint from the digital screen into the physical world of high-end experiential events.

This venture allows Chef's Table to monetize its powerful brand equity in a new vertical, engaging its dedicated audience in a tangible, multi-sensory way. It follows a growing trend of successful media properties leveraging their intellectual property to create lucrative, real-world experiences.

"We're thrilled to partner with Wynn to bring our signature storytelling to life through their incredible portfolio of properties," stated Justin Connor, President of Chef's Table Projects. "Wynn Revelry by Chef's Table marks the first chapter of this exciting collaboration. Together we will push the boundaries of culinary innovation through bold new projects that offer exclusive experiences and original content with the world's best chefs."

This move also includes the launch of the first 'Chef's Table Honors,' suggesting an ambition to create a new, prestigious awards platform within the culinary industry, backed by the credibility of both brands.

Wynn's Culinary Gambit for Market Dominance

While the partnership is a major step for Chef's Table, it is an equally calculated gambit for Wynn Resorts. The company already stands at the pinnacle of luxury hospitality, with its global portfolio consistently earning top accolades. In 2026 alone, Wynn Resorts amassed 18 Five-Star awards from Forbes Travel Guide, and its Macau properties hold the distinction of being the resort with the most Five-Star restaurants in the world. Its Las Vegas and Macau restaurants have also collected numerous Michelin stars over the years.

This collaboration is not about building a culinary reputation from scratch, but about cementing its status as the undisputed global leader in epicurean travel. By aligning with a culturally significant and critically acclaimed brand like Chef's Table, Wynn differentiates itself in the hyper-competitive luxury markets of Las Vegas, Macau, and Boston. It's a powerful play to attract a discerning, high-net-worth clientele that seeks unique, story-driven experiences over conventional luxury.

The global nature of the partnership ensures its impact will be felt across Wynn's portfolio, including its upcoming integrated resort in Ras Al Khaimah, UAE, set to open in 2027. This positions Wynn to offer a consistent, ultra-premium culinary program that becomes a core pillar of its brand identity worldwide.

A Glimpse into the Inaugural Feast

The centerpiece of the September launch weekend is 'The Feast,' a grand tasting event designed to showcase the vanguard of modern dining. On Saturday, September 19, standout culinary talents featured in the Chef's Table series will unveil new and innovative dishes. A panel of judges will select one winner to receive the inaugural 'Taste of Tomorrow' award, adding a forward-looking, competitive edge to the celebration.

The weekend is meticulously curated to blend gastronomy with other luxury pursuits. A golf tournament at the pristine Wynn Golf Club will pair chefs with celebrities and pro golfers, creating unique networking and entertainment opportunities. The entire affair is designed to be more than a food festival; it is positioned as a cultural event for the culinary elite and their most passionate followers.

While specific chefs and ticket prices for the 2026 event have yet to be announced, Wynn's previous 'Revelry' festivals, which featured culinary giants like Dominique Crenn and Alain Ducasse, saw tickets range from approximately $200 for classes to nearly $800 for all-star dinners. The addition of the prestigious Chef's Table brand is expected to increase both demand and exclusivity.

As the culinary world and luxury travelers await further details, this multi-year collaboration is poised not only to redefine Wynn's guest experience but also to set a new benchmark for how media brands and hospitality leaders can co-create value, turning compelling content into unforgettable reality.
