An elegant and exclusive affair, Dîner en Blanc has become THE social gathering of the year for Australians. This outdoor dining event transports guests into another world, offering guests the opportunity to meet new people with long-time friends while dressed up in white at a dinner à la Française.
Each year, Dîner en Blanc is staged in a new secret location, past events have been staged at iconic locations in Canberra such as The National Arboretum Canberra and Reconciliation Place.
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:
