Hong Kong Wine & Dine Festival 2026: four days on the harbourfront, from tomorrow
The Tourism Board's food and wine festival opens on Thursday 29 October at Central Harbourfront and Tamar Park and runs to Sunday 1 November: the hours, the HK$40 entry, what is on, and the month of eating that follows it.
The Hong Kong Wine & Dine Festival opens tomorrow, Thursday 29 October, and runs to Sunday 1 November at the Central Harbourfront Event Space and Tamar Park. It is the Tourism Board's flagship food and wine weekend: four days of booths, chef sessions and live music on the harbour, and the start of the city's eating season. The dates and the venue are confirmed on the Tourism Board's festival page; our event page carries the listing.
Hours and entry
The festival opens in the evening on Thursday 29 October, from 7:30pm to midnight. On Friday 30 and Saturday 31 October it runs from 1pm to 1am, and on Sunday 1 November from 1pm to midnight. General admission is HK$40, with tasting passes and tokens sold separately on top. There are two ways in, both listed by the Tourism Board: the Admiralty entrance next to Tamar Park, and the Central entrance next to Central Pier No. 10.
What is on
The Tourism Board has reported more than 340 booths for this edition. The wine side leads with France, with a special Bordeaux focus, alongside China, Georgia, Italy, Spain and the UK, and new pavilions from Australia and South Korea. The Grand Wine Pavilion gathers the premium merchants, with masterclasses through the weekend, and the Tasting Room runs chef led sessions. Around them sit the Amex Gourmet Club, where Michelin starred restaurants, hotels and neighbourhood favourites serve limited edition dishes, a Coffee Village of cafes and roasters, and live music across the festival's stages into the night.
And then November eats on
The festival is the opening course rather than the whole meal. The Tourism Board's festival page flags Hong Kong Gourmet Month running from 1 to 30 November at restaurants, bars and hotels across the city, and says a Wine & Dine ticket stub unlocks offers through the month; our Gourmet Month listing carries what we know, labelled tentative where the detail is still to settle. The same weekend, the Prudential Hong Kong Tennis Open starts at Victoria Park in Causeway Bay on Saturday 31 October and runs to Sunday 8 November, so the harbourfront and the tennis make a natural double bill. The rest of the month is on the November roundup and the November calendar page.
