UNLEASH BLACK ELEGANCE & EXCELLENCE

Partner with Dîner en Noir Worldwide

 

Step into a realm of refined sophistication and intrigue by partnering with Dîner en Noir Worldwide, a global symbol of Black excellence, sophistication, and community support. As we gear up for the vibrant 2023 fall/winter season and the upcoming 2024 season, Dîner en Noir Worldwide invites applications from event producers to orchestrate events in our current and expanding Host Cities.

But take note: While being a DEN Host-Organizer is an incredible experience, it will take work, dedication, and a lot of your time. So, if you’re thinking about organizing a DEN event, it’s essential to make sure you’re ready to dive in and make the commitment.

Launched in 2016, Dîner en Noir (#DEN) has grown substantially since its inception hosting events in many cities across the globe.  With a mission to combat structural and financial inequities in arts programming, foster small business development, and enhance health and wellness education in underprivileged communities, we are continuously expanding our global #DEN family of events to create positive impacts.

Event producers interested in becoming a #DEN Event Host-Organizer, will first need to complete an application for a #DEN Trade Name & Event License.  There is an annual licensing fee, for Host-Organizers to use our trademark, which is based on the expected Membership/guest count. There is also a 20% License Fee on all ticket sales as well as merchandise sold via the #DENStore by the Host-Organizer. 

Whether you're curating an intimate 250-person affair or a grand 1000-person celebration, #DEN equips Host-Organizers with a comprehensive turn-key production platform and tools to craft a one-of-a-kind experience. Our seamless interface allows effortless customization, from venue and vendor selection to choosing local nonprofit beneficiaries, ensuring flawless execution.  The license includes our signature trademark logo and name, our website platform (www.dinerennoir.com/hostcity), and all support services.  In addition to the trademark license, we also provide images, a media kit, production guidelines documents, as well as organizational and technical support. 

 

#DEN transcends the ordinary, blending immersive dining, art and business networking, health information dissemination, and community fundraising.

Create unforgettable events exuding mystery, allure, and elegance, while generating substantial financial returns (5x+ initial investment return with your first annual event) and giving back to the community. Corporate sponsorship, vendor partners, #DEN merchandise are all additional revenue streams that can be associated with your #DEN event.

Embark on your hosting journey with #DEN, where purpose and profit coalesce harmoniously. Dare to orchestrate events that linger in whispers by clicking the Apply for a #DEN License button and submitting your application to transform your visionary event into an unforgettable reality. Celebrate the fusion of Art, Business, and Community!

We look forward to hearing more about you and your vision for hosting #DENr to your city!
