LONDON WINE WEEK!

In just one short week, as London sheds off its wintery layers, the capital celebrates London Wine Week!




To get involved you need a wristband, your key to the city which unlocks access to the Wine Tours – that’s £5 wine flights or specially created food pairing offers in more than 120 of the very best bars and restaurants in the capital, as well added wristband-wearer bonuses at many London Wine Week ticketed events.

Beyond the self-guided Wine Tours, you can look forward to a jam-packed week of fantastic events. From comedy sessions to the reconstructed top deck of a cruise ship, lavish dinners in skyscrapers or expert-led tastings, London WineWeek is bursting with things to do.
