The Hong Kong Tourism Board announced that this year's Wine & Dine Festival will be the largest yet, spanning four days and attracting approximately 168,000 visitors. The event, themed "Taste the World's Best," will take place from October 29 to November 1, expanding from the Central Harbourfront Event Space to include Tamar Park.
Featuring over 340 stalls, the festival will showcase wines and culinary delights from around 30 countries and regions, with new pavilions from Australia, Canada, and South Korea making their debut.
HKTB chairman Peter Lam expressed hope that this expansion would encourage visitors to stay longer, spend more, and create new business opportunities for the industry. Festival tickets, priced at HK$258 for tasting passes and HK$558 for grand wine passes, will be available for purchase both at the venue and online via Trip.com starting next Monday.
Ticket holders will have the chance to participate in a Hong Kong Gourmet Month following the festival in November, with exclusive offers available at select restaurants and retailers.
