It’s only early spring, but Pottstown Area Economic Development’s plans are already in full bloom for a favorite summer tradition. Fête en Blanc returns for its 8th year—and this time, it’s bigger than ever.
The event is scheduled for later this summer at the beautifully lit Smith Family Plaza. PAED welcomes roughly 750 guests to dress in white and come together for an evening of music, community, and celebration. Modeled after “Dinner in White” gatherings held from Paris to Philadelphia, Pottstown’s version has grown to one of the borough’s most anticipated annual events.
Guests bring their own food and drinks, while tables, chairs, and linens are provided. A handful of Pottstown’s favorite vendors will also be on-site offering local beer, coffee, and desserts. It’s BYO with a local twist.
“This 8th Annual Pottstown Fete en Blanc is a wonderful celebration of how much progress continues to take place in the Borough,” said Peggy Lee-Clark, PAED’s Executive Director. “From 2 dozen attendees at our first Fete, to 750 guests in 2025, this evening represents so much more than a social occasion to bid farewell to summer. The evening’s success, from the guest counts to the sponsors… is a reflection of the collaboration, the connections and the focus taking place in this great town. Pottstown Area Economic Development is committed to revitalization within the Borough.”
Live music will set the mood, featuring Louis Rieger of High Street Music Company along with Anakai Ney & The Grooveyard. Under a canopy of lights and surrounded by the plaza’s fountain and flowers, the ambiance promises to be unforgettable.
Sponsorships are now open, and individual tickets go on sale June 2, 2025. PAED encourages attendees to secure their tickets fast.
