Diner en Blanc, the worldwide pop-up dining event characterized by an all-white attire requirement, is set to embrace a turn-of-the-century Paris theme in 2026, named 'Une Soirée Parisienne – La Belle Époque.' The inaugural event took place in Paris on June 8, drawing 8,000 attendees. Additional gatherings were organized in Okanagan, Canada, and Boston, with the most recent one occurring on August 1 in Beverly Hills, LA, marking its first appearance in seven years. Participants provided their own food and decorations, with tickets for LA starting at $65, alongside a $14 membership fee.
