Back by popular demand... Don’t miss it!
Pop-up Picnic at a Mystery Nahant Location.

++++

You're invited to Nahant’s version of the international phenomenon known as Diner En Blanc! Forbes calls it the most coveted, secret dinner in town! It's an elegant pop-up picnic, held at an iconic location. Le Dîner en Blanc is a yearly global epicurean phenomenon that started in Paris more than 25 years ago. Since then, it has spread to cities all around the world, and we're creating our own (smaller) version of it right here in Nahant, for the 4th year. The location is secret, unveiled only one hour prior to the event. Guests will converge, set up their picnics and engage in fine dining, white twinkle lights and maybe a little magic, until disappearing, leaving no trace they were ever there.

Dress in your creative whites, pack a picnic dinner (be sure to include a table for two, chairs, candles, and all things to make your night fun and fabulous). An hour before the event, an email will be sent out to all ticket holders on where to set up. Then let the party begin!

Featuring live music!
