Dorian's Parlor is a sensuous spectacle of vintage glamour shining in the heart of Philadelphia. Housed at the Doubtletree Hotel on the Avenue of the Arts, this event is a haven for artists, bohemians, socialites and neo-vintage lovers of all stripes and inclinations. The gorgeous event space housing the party features both a grand ballroom and an outdoor patio for a mix of moods and climates.


Each month, Dorian's Parlor will showcase the best in night life and artistic entertainment. In addition to inspired DJs, the Dorian's Parlor events will feature live performances by bands, dancers and countless other talented artists. Be ready to see gorgeous models draped in the finest garments of some of the foremost neo-vintage designers during the fashion shows. And like an exotic bazaar, Dorian's Parlor will host vendors and craftspeople eager to sell their finest wares to the revelrous crowd.


This is an event worth the travel, as there will be nothing like it elsewhere. Dorian's Parlor is located at the beautiful Doubletree Hotel in Philadelphia right on the corner of Broad and Locust St., 3 blocks south of City Hall. Easily accessible from the Broad Street line and Septa Bus 27 and 32, and a short walk from Suburban Station.


Grab bag of Tea.


Also to add, thanks you to Yogi Organic Tea, Twinings Tea, Stash Tea, Teavana and Lipton Tea. At the ticket table when you first come in, we will have a grab bag of tea. In the box will be many individually wrapped tea bags of many different tastes and types from these companies for you to take home and enjoy. We ask that you only take one per guest as we would like everyone to be able to enjoy their tea on Sunday morning. This will only be available while supplies last.
