Daily News | Philly’s Dîner en Blanc returns this August
Dîner en Blanc returns to Philly on Aug. 10 for its 11th year. French for “dinner in white,” folks gather at a designated location, disclosed a few hours before the event, decked out in their best white outfits for a “chic picnic” that’s all about elegance and etiquette.
What began as a group of friends meeting up at a park in Paris in 1988 has expanded to events in more than 80 cities in 30 countries. Rain or shine, guests are expected to attend with their own table, chairs, and picnic basket of food and drink — Champagne or wine only . Guest must arrive at a meeting spot dressed in white and follow the volunteer leader to the secret location.
Organizers for Dîner en Blanc Philadelphia pick a location and request permission from the city to host its gathering, and later pays site and rental fees along with any necessary road closures . , for instance, the city collected $3,000 for the use of City Hall and Thomas Paine Plaza, and the Center City District received a $20,500 rental fee for Dilworth Park.
