Olympic rings, podium, sailboat and more will allow for unique, interactive photo opportunities. TVs will air all major events, and the space will be adorned with 205 flags of the participating countries on display as well as a massive Olympic flame.

“The Olympics unite people all over the world, and in that same sense, we are excited to create this festive pop-up that can bring people together to connect over this momentous time,” says Big Onion Hospitality Owner and Operator Erik Baylis. “All of us experienced this past year mainly apart, but as we get into the Olympic spirit we can feel as if we are all in this together.”
