Cincinnati Magazine is bringing back its upscale, alfresco evening event called Posh Picnic, held at a one of Cincinnati’s esteemed historic gems, the Peterloon Estate in Indian Hill. This popular event sold out last year, so interested guests are encouraged to grab their tickets quickly!

Constructed in 1928, the design of the Peterloon Estate is reminiscent of grandiose European castles. Posh Picnic guests will be ushered to the entrance of the estate by golf cart, where they will be greeted in the courtyard with a flute of champagne and live music, before exploring the first floor and terrace of the home to discover the beauty of the estate’s 16th century architecture and design. Guests will then stroll through a glorious tunnel of lush gardens and natural foliage before entering the sunken garden.

On the picturesque back lawn, a large white tent will be filled with gourmet bites from local restaurants and notable brands including delicious Italian food, picnic-inspired sandwiches, sweet treats and much more. There will also be plentiful craft beer, wine, mocktail and cocktail options for every attendee, with VIP ticketholders additionally receiving a classic picnic basket filled with charcuterie, fresh fruit, a bundt cake, cloth napkins, and a few surprises!

Guests will additionally enjoy a plethora of colorful and botanic photo opportunities with plenty of seating available, including picnic blankets, garden benches and lounge spaces. Be sure to try your hand at a game of croquet in the sunken garden alongside numerous other lawn games found across the grounds. Garden Party attire and flat shoes are recommended. The event will be held rain or shine.

A portion of the event proceeds benefit the Cincinnati Nature Center. The Peterloon Foundation is committed to hosting local non-profit organizations’ events at nominal rental rates. Cincinnati Magazine is thrilled to shine a light on this important mission while offering an exquisite, alfresco evening experience for the Greater Cincinnati community.

Commonwealth Sanctuary is Cincinnati’s home for exquisitely curated live entertainment. Each week we bring you hilarious stand-up comedians, intimate concerts, unique theater productions, live podcast recordings, and so much more.

Commonwealth Sanctuary is housed in the recently renovated, historic former Tower Methodist Church, originally built in 1914. It is no longer a church! Rather, we have converted the purpose of this beautiful old building to bringing you exquisitely curated live entertainment. We have, however, gone to great lengths to preserve the original character of the building while updating for it’s new purpose. We retained all the original stained glass windows and custom-built, curved pews.

We have added a full concession stand with draft beer and wine, as well as many canned drinks, including cocktails. We partner with local Dayton, KY business Kate’s Catering for our prepared food options. We have added full lighting and sound systems, as well as a complete broadcast-quality video system for recording events and live podcasts. We are exclusively partnered with Third Rule Media to produce our recorded content.
