Champagne lovers rejoice – National Champagne Week is set to make its return this October.
The annual celebration of Champagne is set to take over the country from 1-7 October, and will be bigger than ever before, with 19 venues hosting more than 20 events across London, Birmingham and Bath. Ten Champagne houses will be lending their weight to the festivities.
The Champagne will flow as guests enjoy tastings, masterclasses, brunches and lively discussions such as the rise of rosé.
A range of venues including Europe’s longest Champagne bar at St Pancras Grand, the iconic Gherkin and recently-opened Shoreditch hotspot Tonic & Remedy will be taking part. Participating venues outside London include the Pump Room in Bath and Champagne bar and restaurant in Birmingham’s Selfridges in the Bullring.
Rhian Phillips, head of marketing at Searcys, whose four London Champagne bars will be part of the celebrations, comments, “We can’t wait for what is the becoming the biggest week in the Champagne calendar, bringing together those who want to show their appreciation for the world’s most glamorous drink. Fans of fizz are in for a real treat, with a range of events across the week.
 
“Our aim is to emphasise the diversity of Champagne with accessible, approachable and memorable experiences.
 
“With so much going on across the week, we think there’ll be something for everyone, and would encourage people – whether Champagne virgins or connoisseurs – to come along and enjoy a glass or several with us!”
A full calendar of ticketed events will be released imminently, and full details can be found at
