Miami Business Club Hosts Inaugural Gala on October 10 at the Miami Beach Convention Center, Benefiting Miami Waterkeeper

Every year, thousands of Miamians dress in white, carry their own tables and chairs, and gather at a location they won't know until the last moment. It sounds impractical. It is also one of the most beautiful things this city does.

Miami's most anticipated soirée is returning on Saturday, October 24, 2026. Dîner en Blanc will transform a brand-new secret location into a breathtaking sea of white. Renowned as one of the city's premier gourmet and social events, this alfresco gathering brings together style, gastronomy, and community in a visually stunning celebration that has captivated guests around the world.

At this pop-up dining experience, thousands of guests dressed head-to-toe in white come together to share an unforgettable evening filled with gourmet meals, champagne toasts, inspired conversation, and dancing the night away. The result is a magical moment that appears and disappears in a single night, leaving only memories — and spectacular photos — behind.

For Miami's 2026 edition, guests are invited to interpret Dîner en Blanc's signature all-white attire through the elegance of Une Soirée Parisienne — La Belle Époque, infused with the beauty, artistry, and visual richness of Día de los Muertos. The dress code remains entirely white, creating a striking canvas for personal expression through fashion, florals, accessories, and thoughtful details. Think Parisian elegance with a Miami twist: refined silhouettes, romantic florals, vintage-inspired details, and the intricate artistry associated with Día de los Muertos, all reimagined in white.

"Miami knows how to celebrate, but Dîner en Blanc gives us a chance to experience our city in a completely different way," said Monica Castaneda, host of Dîner en Blanc Miami. "This is your table, your people and your night. It is a celebration that belongs to the entire city, bringing together the many communities that make Miami what it is. The location is a secret, but the experience will be unforgettable. This is the event Miami has been waiting for."

Celebrated for its elegance and sense of community, Dîner en Blanc invites guests to become part of the event's signature aesthetic. All participants dress in a chic, all-white ensemble and bring their own white table setting, helping to transform the secret venue into a luminous and cohesive tableau. The location remains undisclosed until the final moments, when guests depart from assigned meeting points and are guided to the site by event volunteers — a hallmark tradition that adds to the charm and mystique.

This year, Miami will offer an almost turnkey Dîner en Blanc experience, making it easier than ever for guests to enjoy the evening. Guests can select their preferred departure point, with tables and chairs included in the ticket price. Once tickets are booked, guests can also visit the event e-store to pre-purchase a curated catered meal prepared by Thierry's Isambert Culinary. As a French-inspired event, only wine and champagne are served; in accordance with Florida alcohol regulations, outside alcohol is not permitted, and attendees may pre-order their selections through the official e-store. Non-alcoholic beverages may be brought from home.

Sustainability remains a core value of Dîner en Blanc. All guests are asked to leave no trace, ensuring the venue is returned to its natural state once the evening draws to a close. Dîner en Blanc Miami warmly thanks Envo, the National Hydration Partner, for its invaluable support of the 2026 edition.
