Introducing Our New Logo & Website
You’re here! Have you had a chance to browse this beautiful new website yet? Take a tour and get even more excited about the coming season!
The new site and totally improved registration platform now look and feel as elegant as the event itself. Here are some highlights about our makeover:
Calling All Fans
“Waiting Lists” are so passé! We’ve created a new “Fan” feature lets you keep tabs on all of your preferred events worldwide, so you don’t miss a beat. Whether you’re a member or a fan, you will have access to your account year-round, along with many other features.
Please note that the few cities that have already started their registration will remain on the previous platform.
Thank You!
Finally, we’d like to introduce a few new faces and reintroduce our more seasoned International Team members, all of whom have made these changes possible. Read our full bios on the Team page. And a big Thank You to everyone else who has been directly involved in this new build. We’re grateful for all the hard work and excited about the future of the global Diner en Blanc community!
