THANK YOU, VANCOUVER!

To the Guests of Dîner en Blanc Vancouver,

Thank you! Merci! 

We were completely amazed by the fourth edition of Dîner en Blanc Vancouver, held at the iconic Canada Place on Tuesday, August 25, 2015. Over 4500 dined in the spectacular setting in a truly stunning evening. By most accounts, the festivities were described as magical. And of course, the event managed to create a ripple of awe and inspiration that cascaded over the City of Vancouver!

All told, it is you, and the tremendous amount of effort put forth by each participant that made this experience so wonderful.  From the sea of beautiful white outfits, to your special plating, creative tablescapes and incredible attitudes; you elevated the experience to new heights. 

Our words fall short in describing just how thankful we are. Our hope: your experience was fulfilling and magical, catapulting your enthusiasm forward to join our event next year. As we continue to grow, it is your continued contribution that will keep the magic of Dîner en Blanc so special and unique. 

As Hosts, we would also like to thank a number of others who helped co-create with us this year. 

First and foremost, a true thank you Port Metro Vancouver, we are indebted to you for allowing us the use of one of the most picturesque spaces in Vancouver. To Hawksworth Restaurant, who managed to cater thousands of meals that garnered outrageous reviews from our diners. Your culinary creativity was astonishing. 

Thank you to the: Concord Pacific, RBC, Nordstrom, Mogo, Indochino, Evian and Charton Hobbs. Without all of your dedication and commitment as sponsors of Dîner en Blanc Vancouver, we could never undertake such a massive feat of culture. 

And finally to our Table Leader and large volunteer team: a collection of the most amazing people. Thank you so very much. Your endless hours of volunteerism, gathering friends, communicating with your groups and preparing everyone to look so good - you make the event to come to life.
