Epic Eats for a Heroic Premiere: The Ripe Avocado at Ironheart’s Private Screening
We were delighted to partner with Premier for an exclusive private screening of the first three episodes of Ironheart on Disney+, hosted at the stunning new Everyman Cinema in Borough Yards. This intimate event brought together industry professionals, media and VIP guests for a first look at Marvel’s groundbreaking new series, set after the events of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.
Against the sophisticated backdrop of Borough Yards’ flagship cinema – with its plush velvet seating and state-of-the-art screening technology – the evening perfectly captured the excitement surrounding Riri Williams’ journey from MIT student to armoured superhero.
Our team curated a menu that celebrated the series’ cultural richness and youthful energy, while our signature theatrical cocktails added drama and spectacle to match the Marvel magic on screen. Guests enjoyed globally inspired bowl foods at the after-party, creating the perfect blend of premium dining and superhero celebration – a night that left everyone talking long after the credits rolled.
