Upon gate arrival; flight deck door swung open and Captain said get everyone off this is a fume event. We deplaned as normal and flight attendants 1 and 3 began to experience symptoms immediately.
FAs 1 and 3 were finishing gate arrival procedures when Captain swung open flight deck door and asked 'do you smell that'? I replied 'smell what?' Just as I said that the pungent odor hit us (Number 1 and 3 FAs) and then lingered at galley and entry door area. We opened [the] door as soon as an agent arrived to deplane the passengers.
