By popular demand, a 2nd night added!
UPDATE – July 7, 2020 – July 10th is SOLD OUT, but due to the popularity of the first night of Max Olé we are adding tickets for a second night on July 11th
While Max Downtown is on hiatus due to Covid-19 related restrictions, we will be taking the show on the road and setting up our kitchen out on the farm – Rosedale Farm in Simsbury, CT, which is also the summer home for the Max Chef to Farm Series – now in its 13th season.
Continuing on with the summer series – Max Downtown and Max Catering & Events will be on the farm July 10th and 11th. Seating is limited and we will be taking all of the precautions you will see (and sometimes not see) as in our restaurants. We are following all State and CDC Guidelines for safety and sensitization. Below is a complete list of FAQs that we know are on our guest’s mind, so we hope you find this helpful. If there are any other questions, please feel free to reach out to Max Customer Service to discuss.
We look forward to seeing you out on the farm – safe and with a little distance. We do have 200 acres to roam across, so there is plenty of space!
