Once again this year the elegant white wave of dinner guests will invade one of the most prestigious public locations in our region. Le Dîner en Blanc returns to South Georgian Bay, on Saturday, August 10, 2019. For its second edition, 1,000 revelers are awaited at a new and secret location. Last year the inaugural très chic picnic attracted more than 700 cultural enthusiasts for a memorable evening on historic Simcoe Street in Collingwood’s Heritage Downtown.
This annual secret affair, promises another unforgettable evening of elegance, beauty and magic, as it takes over an undisclosed public space whose location is only revealed minutes prior to the commencement of the event.
“If you were at the event last year, you know to circle this date! The event which celebrates community, friendship, music, food, art, and ‘Joie De Vivre’ all with elegance and flair, was one of the best nights of last summer” says Lori D’Agostino, returning host of Le Dîner en Blanc – South Georgian Bay. “For this new edition, we have once again searched high and low to find a venue that will ‘wow’ and render this night unique and magical as well as have a bit more room to welcome more guests.”
Registration to participate in this unique experience happens in three stages: Phase 1 is for members from the inaugural edition; Phase 2 is for new members who are referred by Phase 1 members; Phase 3 is for people who signed up on the waiting list. Ticket Phases will open in June. To be part of this unique experience, be sure to sign up now to take part in the 2019 event at southgeorgianbay.dinerenblanc.com/register.
