PHOENIX — A part of Desert Ridge Marketplace has been transformed into a winter wonderland with the Ember Lounge.
The District Dome is home to the lounge but only for a short time. Dec. 31 is the last day it will be open.
The immersive lounge takes guests to an enchanted holiday forest. The 50-foot dome has a blackout liner over top and uses high-definition projectors that add to the holiday spirit.
It also features music, plenty of food and winter-themed craft cocktails.
Desert Ridge's Marketing Director Katie Hauptman said this is just the beginning of what can be dreamt up within the dome.
“The moment you step inside you’re in an evergreen immersive experience, coupled with food and beverage that really ties it together,” she said.
There is a $30 cover charge and attendees must be 21 or older.
