This sounds redonkulos! This will be on Epic Dinner

Rendering by Min|Day Architects
There are beer dinners and then there are beer DINNERS!!  This dinner won't be centered on beer, but it will include Nebraska Brewing Company beers with the dinner.  It will serve 500 and be at the base of a large grain elevator in Omaha that will be decorated with full size murals on them.  This is installation art on a terrific grand scale.  Here is what they have to say.
On October 3, 2010 at 2pm, over 500 people will gather at the base of the grain elevator and its temporary giant mural for a dinner of epic proportions. 10 prominent local chefs will prepare and plate a 5-course meal on giant platters brought to your table composed of seasonal, locally farmed ingredients.  The site, scale of the event, and quality/presentation of the food will create a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Tickets to this event will be available on a first come first serve basis here on August 1, 2010.  Each ticket is $50 and will include two drinks of specialty ‘silo beer’ or root beer, both crafted by a local brewery.

This group, Stored Potential, repurpose the old concrete grain elevators into works of art.  I think this is really cool.  Go check out their site, sign up for an epic dinner and have a good time.  I can't wait to see the ones in Omaha redecorated if you will.

No details on the exact location, but I believe it's the grain elevators north of I-80 between 34th & 35th Streets.

Looks like I may be correct. According to their website they have partnered with SILO Extreme Outdoor Adventures in Omaha.

These are the silos at 34th & Vinton in Omaha.
