Asia’s premier gastronomic event is back! From 23 to 26 October 2025, the Hong Kong Wine & Dine Festival 2025 will once again take centre stage at the Central Harbourfront, turning this iconic waterfront into a four-day feast of world-class wines, flavours, and culinary artistry.

Visitors can expect fine wines, gourmet creations, and unforgettable pairings that make Hong Kong a global culinary destination.
Grand Wine Pavilion and Tasting Room highlights
At the heart of the festival is the Grand Wine Pavilion, a showcase curated by wine critic James Suckling and other experts. Guests can explore legendary estates from the Bordeaux 1855 Classification, celebrate its 170th anniversary, and enjoy intimate masterclasses with premium châteaux. Rare vintages and bold expressions from next-generation winemakers add depth to the experience.
Equally unmissable is the Tasting Room, a pop-up restaurant created only for the festival. This limited-time dining experience brings together five acclaimed chefs, including Andrew Wong of London’s two-Michelin-starred A. Wong, Beijing’s three-Michelin-starred Cheung Yat Fung, and Korean celebrity chef Jung Ji-sun. Hong Kong talents Menex Cheung and Jayson Tang join them, showcasing refined Cantonese flavors in a menu that defines gastronomic artistry.

New discoveries await with wines from the Czech Republic, Belgium, Norway, and Austria, alongside rising Chinese vintages gaining worldwide acclaim. A self-guided pairing journey allows visitors to explore varietals like Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Merlot, and Shiraz, matched with foods to unlock bold, unexpected harmonies.
