Le Diner en Blanc Boston
Past venues for Le Diner en Blanc in Boston include the Rose Kennedy Greenway and more recently, Seaport Common. This year’s location is only revealed to guests and members approved from the waitlist. The event is run by local organizers who implement Le Diner en Blanc founding principles- guests must wear all white from head to toe and organizers must throw one spectacular party!
The excitement of the secret location, combined with the finesse of our guests, makes this a truly special night,” said this year’s returning hosts, Ashley McGowan, Kaitlyn O’Connor and Kathy Lucas.
This means food, decor, and location are heavily curated to match the all-white theme and volunteers are thoroughly trained leading up to the event. As a BYOP (bring your own picnic) event, guests also must bring their own table and seating in addition to the picnic basket, your finished table setting must be white.
Dues are collected when event entrance is guaranteed. You can register here.
About Le Diner en Blanc
The original Le Diner en Blanc launched 36 years ago by François Pasquier and a group of friends in Paris, France circa 1988! The event proliferated into a worldwide epicurean celebration now with over 120 cities globally participating and a record-breaking 17,000 guests at the 30th annual Paris dinner in 2018, quite the increase from the handful at the 1988 dinner.
The secret dinner has since been celebrated in 40 countries and continues to embrace the simplicity that started it all. The fun of getting dressed up and throwing a swanky party.
Guests must be dressed in all white and congregate at a secret, stunning location in their city. Local event planners pioneered the celebration with the desire to bring Diner En Blanc to Boston! More information will be released on the event in the coming months, but if you’re interested in participating, the best thing you can do is register for the waitlist and start planning your best all-white outfit!
