Foodies will be equally delighted by the array of local snacks, delicacies, and Michelin-starred dishes on offer. With booths featuring new “Culinary Stars,” Michelin-starred restaurants and master chefs’ recommendations, attendees are in for a truly unforgettable gastronomic experience. This year’s Wine & Dine Festival continues its tradition of showcasing an exquisite selection of spirits including Chinese Baijiu, whisky, gin, and sake, to creative cocktails and craft beer. Classic vintages will be presented, while a wider spectrum of emerging wine and spirits varieties will also be introduced. The event will also feature masterclasses led by renowned chefs, Hong Kong-themed cocktails created by award-winning mixologists, and a slate of live musical performances.

“The Hong Kong Wine & Dine Festival is a signature annual event, and the scale of the event this year transcends that of last year, promising a satisfying visit for participants of all tastes,” states Dr. Pang Yiu-Kai, Chairman of HKTB. “The Hong Kong Wine and Dine Festival attracts visitors from all over the world and HKTB has also strengthened its efforts to promote Hong Kong’s allure as a wine and culinary destination.”

Tasting Theatre – Masterclass Programs

This year, two US culinary talents will present in the Tasting Theatre: James Beard Foundation award-winning chef Nancy Silverton will lead a culinary workshop and wine expert and author Anthony Giglio will lead a tasting experience through Old World vs. New World wines. Additional culinary masters from Hong Kong and around the globe will present everything from white truffle tastings to bespoke cooking experiences that will give attendees insight into the fine wines and gourmet food they love.
