LA’s first mass picnic, PopUp Dinner L.A., an enchanting underground dinner meets flash mob meets outdoor picnic inspired by similar affairs in San Francisco and San Diego is happening Saturday. Join in with friends at the “Gatsby-esque” experience in a secret location in Los Angeles (you’ll found out where to go the day of the event via email.)
Guests of PopUp Dinner L.A. are required to dress all in white and bring their own tableware, food and beverages reflecting dining in style. Tables, chairs, entertainment will be provided and even food and beverages for those who would rather purchase pre-ordered dinner basket. A portion of proceeds will go to Slow Food Los Angeles, a chapter of Slow Food USA.
There are two different types of tickets to choose from: Bring you own admission costs $28; or The Brothers Catered dinner costs $78. To view the menu.
