It does what it says on the tin, or label. London Wine Week is back for its fifth year from the 14th – 20th May with a brand-new hub at Flat Iron Square and more than 500 different wines to try across the capital.
Organised by DrinkUp.London – the team behind London Cocktail Week and London Beer Week – it’s a week-long adventure exploring and celebrating the city’s diverse and exciting wine scene.
This year, the festival has gone digital with the DrinkUp.London app and £10 digital Festival Pass, ensuring the places to visit are right in the palm of your hand.
From red, roseÌ and white to natural, orange and sparkling, there will be wines for all preferences and events for all levels of wine knowledge from enthusiastic beginners to connoisseurs.
A host of interactive events including wine tastings, masterclasses, dinners, pop-ups and parties will take place over the seven days.
Back by popular demand, over 125 of the very best wine bars will be offering bespoke Wine Tasting Flights and ‘Sip & Snack’ food pairings for Festival Pass holders.
This year, London Wine Week is moving to a brand-new Hub at Flat Iron Square in Southwark. Situated just behind the South Bank and within walking distance of London Bridge, the space will be transformed into a summer garden playing host to a variety of pop-up wine bars.
And on Saturday 19th May, London Wine Week will be celebrating the Royal Wedding with a free live screening and Garden Party. Free to attend and open to all.
A full programme of individual, one-off events will be announced soon.
