Hong Kong Wine & Dine Festival
Hong Kong Wine & Dine Festival takes place Late Oct 2026 (expected; 2025 edition ran Oct 23 - 26, HKTB confirms dates yearly) in Hong Kong. The dress code is Smart-casual; a light layer for breezy waterfront evenings. Typical cost ranges from 10 to 60 EUR per person.
A four-day open-air festival on the Central Harbourfront pairing hundreds of global wine booths with food stalls from Hong Kong's celebrated kitchens, all set against the Victoria Harbour skyline. Casual, scenic and enormous, it is the flagship event of Asia's most wine-literate city and draws well over a hundred thousand visitors.

How to attend
Open to the public: buy general-admission tickets (roughly HKD 40 - 100) online via the Hong Kong Tourism Board or at the gate, then add tasting passes for wine and food tokens used at booths. Central Harbourfront is a short walk from Central and Hong Kong MTR stations. Opening evening and weekday sessions are noticeably calmer than the weekend.
Public tickets for the 29 October to 1 November 2026 festival are not on sale yet - the tourism board's page currently carries only the exhibitor application.
Insider tip
Buy the premium tasting pass rather than single tokens - the rare and vintage wine booths it unlocks are where the serious pours happen, with the Victoria Harbour skyline thrown in free.
