Hong Kong’s Wine & Dine Festival returns from 29 October to 1 November 2026, spreading across Central Harbourfront Event Space and Tamar Park for the first time. With more than 340 food and drink booths, the festival has grown by over 10% compared with last year.
Visitors can explore flavours from around 31 countries and regions, including debut pavilions representing Australia, Canada and South Korea. The programme brings together Michelin-starred restaurants, 26 luxury hotels and events hosted by international chefs.
What To Expect At The Wine & Dine Festival
The Hong Kong Tourism Board (HKTB) has outlined five areas to explore across the expanded festival:
- Grand Wine Pavilion: Sample prestigious vintages from international wine regions, with expert-led tastings and masterclasses exploring the bottles.
- Tasting Room: Edward Lee and Thierry Marx join a five-chef banquet, while Choi Hyun-seok collaborates with Edward Voon at a separate lunch.
- AMEX GOURMET CLUB: Michelin-starred restaurants and local favourites serve signature dishes together.
- Coffee Village: Specialty roasters and baristas bring craft coffees, creative drinks and workshops to Tamar Park.
- After Nine Vibes: Enjoy live entertainment and food after dark, with later weekend closing times.
