1,200 people dressed in all white attended Diner en Blanc Vancouver, the largest public outdoor dinner ever to take place in the city. Here are a few photos from the evening.

What is Diner en Blanc?

At the last minute, the location is given to thousands of friends and acquaintances who have been patiently waiting to learn the “Dîner en Blanc’s” secret place. Thousand of people, dressed all in white, and conducting themselves with the greatest decorum, elegance, and etiquette, all meet for a mass “chic picnic” in a public space.

    Do you bring your own table and chairs? That’s what it seems like in the last pic.

    They blocked the sidewalk on Cordova and Seymour streets. I was there with my white cane and had a heck of a time negotiating my way on the sidewalk. Pnahandlers were shoved to the side as the elite in their elegant whites obstructed pedestrian traffic. i was reminded of Rome in the dying days of the empire. All the white designer dresses and the pricey suits made a pretty picture. i could still smell the urine from the adjacent allys and i could see the hunger on the faces of the poor people panhandling!

    Beautiful. In Europe they close bridges and set tables, entertainment, linens, dinner, dancing on the bridge over looking the water and city lights. No cars. I hope Vancouver does more of this.
