Diner en Blanc, The Legendary Urban Picnic, Returns to Sacramento October 2024
Le Diner en Blanc was held Saturday, October 5th at a secret venue that was revealed at the last minute, per tradition (literally 1-2 hours prior to the event time), at McKinley Park in Sacramento from 6 pm to 9 pm. The last Diner en Blanc was in 2019 and this year’s event had over over 1,000 guests for this festive urban picnic created to celebrate Sacramento’s spirit and its people.
For those who don’t know Le Diner en Blanc is so much more than an event. It’s a unique cultural movement that empowers friends of friends to gather and celebrate their shared passions for life, food, fashion, and community, year after year, with a pinch of mystery and large serving of spontaneity. Elegantly dressed all in white, guests arrive at a secret location for a chic picnic en masse. They bring their own tables, chairs, picnic baskets—all the trimmings—to sit down with friends and make new connections in one of their city’s most beautiful public spaces. The location remains secret up until the very moment of arrival. Over the course of the evening, guests from all backgrounds eat, dance, and reconnect with the finer things in life, as they appreciate the night’s magical experience.
To this day, over 120 cities in 40 countries have joined the ever-growing and international network to celebrate gourmet cuisine, offer extraordinary entertainment, and bring together vibrant individuals and bon vivants around the world. While Diner en Blanc International is headquartered in Montreal, Canada, every event in every city is hosted by passionate local organizers who fell in love with the original Parisian concept and wanted to bring it home and dress it up with local flair.
