Yerevan Wine Days Festival: About the Event

The Yerevan Wine Days Festival is an annual event held on the first Friday, Saturday, and Sunday of June on the streets of Moskovyan, Tumanyan, and Saryan. It is the largest wine festival in Armenia. The organizer is "EventToura" (an agency for the development of event tourism). In 2023, the festival was attended by more than 120,000 people. Its aim is to promote wine tourism in Armenia. The festival involves more than 70 winemakers and over 30 food-producing companies. Every year, this number increases, and the event begins to include more participants and partners. The festival offers not only wine tasting but also educational and social events accompanied by music. Entrance to the festival is free, but it is worth noting that special packages are required for wine tasting. Visitors can freely move around the entire area, interact with winemakers, taste wines from various wine companies, explore more than 600 types of wine, and attend concerts. In 2022, the festival was recognized as the event of the year at the Wine Travel Awards 2021-2022 international ceremony held in London.
