Total immersion in another world can be a wonderful mental health break from our daily routine. Here’s your chance to be like Alice and go down the rabbit hole; leave the real world behind and enter a realm of splendour and magic. Escapes like this are rare, so when an opportunity arises it’s important to take it!

Le Dîner En Blanc is a flash-gathering in a public space. Guests come dressed in white and enjoy dinner together. Diners are required to provide their own food (alcohol is available for purchase), table and chairs setting up in an incredible organizational feat of style and aesthetic. Participants are made privy of the secret location on the day of the event.
The concept began in Paris in 1988 when François Pasquier invited a group of friends to an elegant outdoor dinner at a public park, asking them to dress in white so they could find each other. The event has grown to over 70 cities.
Coming into its sixth year in Vancouver, Dîner en Blanc will be an intimate and connected event this year being held at two secret locations.
