The 2015 edition of Diner en Blanc - Halifax takes place August 22nd!

Once again this year, the elegant white wave of dinner guests will take over one of Halifax’s public spaces. Le Dîner en Blanc returns to Halifax, on August 22, 2015. For this second edition, more than 1,000 cultural enthusiasts will await to partake in the festivities at a new and secret location.
 
Last year’s inaugural très chic picnic attracted over 900 Haligonians for a memorable evening at the King’s College Quad. 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! This event allows us to enjoy some of our most prestigious and iconic public spaces of the city with elegance and flair”, says Stacy O’Rourke, co-host of Dîner en Blanc, Halifax. 



To maintain the uniqueness of Dîner en Blanc, as well as staying true to tradition, guests must observe certain requirements and follow a few key rules:
  • To participate:  registered members from last year will be automatically invited in Phase 1 and may invite a new member to Phase 2.  New guests can register for the waiting list, Phase 3, via the official website: halifax.dinerenblanc.info/register.
  • Once a member and their guest is confirmed, participation becomes mandatory, regardless of weather conditions.  This is a rain or shine event. 
  • Dress code:  elegant and white only.  Originality is encouraged as long as it is stylish and tasteful. 
  • Table setting:  all white! Think flowers, candle light, and elegant décor.  Be creative and add your own flair.
  • To ensure that the secret location is kept undisclosed until last minute, guests meet at assigned departure location and are escorted by Dîner en Blanc volunteer.
  • In order to leave the event location as clean as when they arrived, guests are required to leave with all their belongings, leftovers and litter.
